Hi Boniforti

I use this in my squid.conf file.

I basically deny the client used.

## Stop multimedia downloads ##
acl useragent browser -i ^.*NSPlayer.*
acl useragent browser -i ^.*player.*
acl useragent browser -i ^.*Windows-Media-Player.*
acl useragentq rep_mime_type ^.*video.*
acl useragentq rep_mime_type ^.*audio.*
http_access deny useragent
http_access deny useragentq

For future, you may want to try switching "log_mime_hdrs off" to on and then you will see the clients used in you
access.log.

HTH
