I configured squid as
anonymize_headers deny Allow Authorization Cache-Control
anonymize_headers deny Content-Encoding Content-Length
anonymize_headers deny Content-Type Date Expires Host
anonymize_headers deny If-Modified-Since Last-Modified
anonymize_headers deny Location Pragma Accept
anonymize_headers deny Accept-Encoding Accept-Language
anonymize_headers deny Content-Language Mime-Version
anonymize_headers deny Retry-After Title Connection
anonymize_headers deny Proxy-Connection
fake_user_agent Nutscrape/1.0 (CP/M; 8-bit)

And now cache logs with User-Agent: Nutscrape/1.0 (CP/M; 8-bit)

Here I want ro know how it is accepting fake_user_agent Nutscrape/1.0
(CP/M; 8-bit)
When by default (since im using IE) it logs with User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0)^M
