Dear Manoj,

I have solved this problem by redirecting the traffic of the proxy
server to another proxy server which can access the www.hi5.com site.

I am using Squid-2.5 right now. I plan to upgrade to Squid-2.6 when
FreeBSD-6.2 gets released.

But I don't think that it is a problem with Squid-2.5. Some of my proxy
servers running Squid-2.5 can access the hi5.com site while others
can't.

However, since I redirected the hi5.com traffic to another working proxy
server, I have had no problems!

I just added the lines below in my squid.conf:

acl viaServer3 dstdomain .hi5.com
cache_peer_access Server3.com.np allow viaServer3
never_direct allow viaServer3

Hope it works for you too since it is working for me :)

Yours sincerely,
