[squid-users] Caching windowsupdate

Been trying to find ways to tweak my proxy setup and came across some info
about caching windowsupdate.com, and also some other sites. I was
wondering if anyone has anything to add to this for other sites that might
be popular and/or more Microsoft sites?

This is what I found so far. I have mot put these in yet and also would
like some feedback on anyone that might see a bug in here before I put
this on a live server. :P

Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things
they make it easier to do don't need to be done
