Then there is a problem with writing the squid.pid file. Maybe Squid does not have permission to write to this file or something. > I have to kill it with kill > -9 <pid of squid and related processess> command. Don't "kill -9" unless you absolutely have to. "kill -9" is the same as "squid -k kill" and will forcibly shut down Squid without any chance to clean up first. > After that my squid gets unusable.

Then you have some other problem as well. You should never need to restart the machine only because you are restarting a daemon like Squid. Regards Henrik
