    Yes, great tip ..... but unfortunelly most of the antivirus will
fail to catch most of those worms that are being sent in .scr links on
emails these days ...

    I have tested several of these worms, collected in my users
messages, and scanned with clamav McAfee and Norton .... it was nearly a
completly failure.

    I agree that integrating squid with antivirus is great, but it's
wrong to think that this will keep you free from these kind of shit that
will reach your network/users through http ...... Unfortunelly, but at
least in my tests, completly true.
