I solved it. FYI After consulting the Log and the Microsoft site, it appears that Windows Update, while doing all the work from windowsupdate.microsoft.com actually sources the files for download from www.download.windowsupdate.com so as you can see my blanket microsoft.com will not cover this. Once I explicitly added www.download.windowsupdate.com it all worked sweet.
Another case of squidGuard doing it's job. Jay -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jay Turner Sent: Thursday, 4 April 2002 12:40 PM To: Squidguard Mailing List Subject: Windows Update & squidGuard 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
