Sorry for this, but I've installed and got Alt Package. It worked nicely. Then I choose Services -> Alt Package. Choose "Local 'XML Base URL' (127.0.0.1)", press Define button; now I have done in two different ways, without success:

I download http://diskatel.narod.ru/pfSense/packages/pkg_config.xml, copy it's contents to clipboard, paste it's contents in "Change local 'pkg_config.xml'" area; them press save; them go to System, Package, and the system holds some seconds and them says "Unable to retrieve package info from 127.0.0.1. Cached data will be used.". This way it uses a cache file without showing me any possibility of installing squidguard.
as I notice that the above proceed saves the pkg_config.xml content to /usr/local/www/packages/, so I went to a ssh session, and downloaded the desired pkg_config.xml file, using wget, unto that directory.
then I back to frontend, Services -> Alt Package, choose "local 'xml base url (127.0.0.1)", press define button, then System, Package, and again it holds some seconds and shows me the same: "Unable to retrieve package info from 127.0.0.1. Cached data will be used.".

Am I doing something wrong?

thanks again and sorry for this ;D

Need download pkg_config.xml as file. If you use browser for viewing(and paste-copy) content of this file - you have additional symbols (+/-), what broke XML structure.
