[squid-users] yahoo problem

hi all
this is the 2nd time am facing this problem... i posted it back in Jan2002
but none responded... now again am at the same place. the solution to last
time was to use RedHat squid rpm which ran ok... the problem is---
with a complied & running squid(squid-2.4Stable6) for a day or two it stops
some sites automatically.. for eg & in perticular-->www.yahoomail.com,
mail.yahoo.com. when i allow my office & clients to pass the transparent
squid box they have time out.. The intresting thing is there is no squid
error page but the default Win ie error page of REFRESH !... sooner i change
the transparent proxy(iptables syntax thats is not using squid anymore)
everything is ok... i tried to use acl with yahoomail, mail.yahoo.com for
>>always_direct<<<..but it didnt work too !...
after writing this mail i will try to clear cache 2Gb(11Gb for squid) & try
again which i dont think will help !.. but anywaz.....
so dear friends--can anyone throw some light on this ?? the squid was
complied with --->
 CFLAGS=" -DNUMTHREADS=30 " ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/squid-2.4-6
--enable-FEATURE=yes --with-PACKAGE=yes
--enable-dlmalloc=/usr/lib/libdmalloc.so --enable-gnuregex --disable-carp
--enable-async-io --enable-removal-policies="heap,lru" --enable-icmp
--enable-delay-pools --disable-wccp --enable-kill-parent-hack --enable-snmp
--disable-useragent-log --enable-htcp --enable-poll --disable-http-violations
--enable-linux-netfilter --enable-internal-dns --disable-underscores
--disable-auth-modules --enable-unlinkd --enable-stacktraces

my linux box is -->Rh7.2 with iptables iproute & squid this box acts as
gateway for clients onits 4 sifferent ether ports !

thanking all of u in advance ....
regards
A.H
