Re: [squid-users] Re: Squid "access.log" problem.

One more question.
In my case port 80 is redirected to 3128 to use squid
transperent proxy. Will squid access.log file collect
data transfer from port used by Kazza, Instant
Messenger?

This diff. in data transfer might be due to data
uploading from ports used by Kazza, IM, etc.

Please guide.
Thanks for support.
