RE: [squid-users] Squid not allowing WLM (windows live messenger) to go through. any tip ?

Thanks for your advice.
though that's the page i followed to add destinations to allow.
they're already set in the config and a rule to allow to CONNECT to port 443 and 1863 already exists.

Some users are able to sign in, others cannot.
and no "deny" hit is showing in access.log so i can troubleshoot.

PS: i tried using AMSN today, i was able to sign in though the contact list couldn't be loaded. even though i can see in access.log a CONNECt to contacts.live.com:443
as well as another server which hosts my contact list

The users are still able to use the Messenger service through their Hotmail accounts over the web and when accessing Live Messenger at home on the same machine. Not sure what to try or where to approach this from anymore and was wondering if anyone managed to solve this issue already and could provide some tips. Any help would be much appreciated.
