Hello Mike Ellis,

In squid-2.6, you can customize the access log format by using logformat directive in squid.conf file.

logformat squid %ts.%03tu %6tr %>a %Ss/%03Hs %<st %rm %ru %un %Sh/%<A %mt

%ru is Request URL.

If remove the format code (%ru) from the logformat direcive, the requested URL will not write into access.log.
