blocking on extensions is silly anyway, i've seen windows sites that have something like http://site/cgi-bin/somescript.exe that turns out to be html, you really need to block on mime type. Also, the !POST thing doesn't make a lot of sense either since most search engines (like google) uses GET vars, not POST and additionally once they actually click on a site it won't be a POST request so they'll get blocked anyway.. figure out how to use rep_mime_type and you'll save yourself a lot of time..

You could have saved yourself some time and frustration by checking the archive for "block exe file", or on Google: squid-users "block exe file". Adam
