Let me verify something else with you - Based on your conf file your
files are located as follows:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/ads/domains>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/ads/domains.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/ads/urls>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/ads/urls.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/expressions>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/mail/domains>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/mail/domains.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/warez/domains>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/warez/domains.db
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/warez/urls>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/warez/urls.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/hacking/domains>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/hacking/domains.db>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/hacking/urls>
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/hacking/urls.db>
Is this correct? (It's not "/usr/local/...."?)
Assuming this is correct, the easiest way to ensure that all of your
ownerships are set correctly is:
<chown -R squid.squid /local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome>
Here's the way I would troubleshoot your squidGuard configuration:
Temporarily change this line in your config file:
pass !porn !ads !hacking !warez !mail all
to this:
pass !porn all
Delete:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains.db>
and
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls.db>
Copy:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains>
to
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains.hold>
Copy:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls>
to
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls.hold>
Edit:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/domains>
(Note: If you do not use a Linux editor, ensure that the file stays in
unix format.)
Edit the file so that it only contains the following line:
c-span.org
Edit:
</local/squid/squidGuard/dbhome/porn/urls>
(Note: If you do not use a Linux editor, ensure that the file stays in
unix format.)
Edit the file so that it only contains the following line:
unitedmedia.com/comics/dilbert
Then:
<squidGuard -u>
<squid -k reconfigure>
Try visiting http://www.c-span.org. You should be blocked. (If you've
visited that site recently, clear your browser's local cache or simply
hit reload.)
Try visiting http://www.unitedmedia/comics/dilbert. You should be
blocked. (If you've visited that site recently, clear your browser's
local cache or simply hit reload.)
Try visiting http://www.unitedmedia/comics. You should *NOT* be blocked.
If these tests fail, examine your log file very carefully, starting from
the reconfigure and let us know what you find.

Thanks Rick,
That was part of the problem.
My db files had my user name and my group, and I changed it to match the
squid.conf file.
now everything is user= netmax group= netmax
Still did not clear up the porblem though :>{
