Hi All,

This maybe more of a squid question than a squidguard, but hopefully someone
in here will be able to help me out.
I'm trying to perform a Windows Update connecting through squidGuard/squid
and I am getting problems.

I use a small whitelist of sites I can visit and in this i have a domain
listing of microsoft.com (so any subdomains, including
windowsupdate.microsoft.com.au will be allowed). I can connect to Windows
Update and it is able to tell me what updates I need, however when I start
to download the update, I get errors, the first being a Security Warning box
that says that "The object to be verified is unknown to the Trust Provider."
It asks me if I want to install it. If I click yes, it attempts to install,
then fails.

Has anyone else encountered this problem before?

Below is a copy of the "More Info" that is provided by the Security Warning
box, I assume it is beacuse my computers sees the file as coming from the
proxy and not windowsupdate.

Unsigned Program Download

This software does not have a certificate, so it might not be safe to
install and run on your computer.
A certificate contains information that a specific software program is
genuine. This ensures that no other program can assume the identity of the
original program.
The software publisher has not obtained a certificate for this software from
a recognized certification authority, so the authenticity of this software
cannot be verified.
Given what you know about this software, its publisher, and your computer,
you must decide whether to proceed with installing and running this
software.

If, given this information, you still do not feel confident about installing
this software, then click No.

Thanks
Jay
