this one.

thanks


The unknown binary chars at the start of the method mean extension_methods will not be much help.

Locate one of the IPs which seems fairly regular. Contact that client and talk about whats going on. Do they actually use GoogleTalk or is this some broken malware? There has been report of some infection recently which constantly contacts google. This may be it. Or they may have configured the proxy as a SOCKS proxy.

A trace of the traffic flow going into Squid will likely show what two binary characters are being prepended to the request. Maybe contacting someone at Google to report the bug in their software.

When you figure out exactly what is going on for one, that should help with the rest. And please report back here so others with the same problem can get better help.

Good luck.
Amos

Hi Amos,

Since we a have numbers of subscribers It is hard for me to identify and visit each subscriber. You see I have another proxy running on version squid-2.6 Stable 3 and we not facing any problem.
Do you have any idea how can I solve it on the squid level instead of 
identifying the clients, and how am I going to fix it. Can you recommend 
installing the older version 2.6 stable 3 instead?

Thanks a lot

Thanks in advance,

One of the client apps (looks like something a custom built app does rather than a browser) using your proxy is sending garbage in the HTTP headers.

You need to track down if you can which client is doing this and fix it.
