I use a completely different approach to the VeriSign problem.
My /etc/squid.verisign reads:
 64.94.110.11
 208.254.3.130

And in the squid.conf:
 acl verisign dst "/etc/squid.verisign"
 deny_info ads-verisign.html verisign
 http_access deny ads.ip

I then put up an informational HTML page "ads-verisign.html" in the
appropriate squid directory and I am set. That really helps the users
more in understand what's going on then making access to the VeriSign
scum pages faster.

Maybe there are more IP addresses than just these two but this seems to
work in the first place.
