      Hi everyone!

      I recently started using Snort and Squid on a pfSense firewall that has been in place for about a year now. I've had little to no trouble installing and configuring both packages as needed, but Squid is causing trouble with streaming media on port 80 while configured as an anonymous proxy.

      More specifically, the currently playing tracks tend to not display on Shoutcast and there are hiccups in the playback every couple of seconds.

      What I'd like to know is what kind of configuration changes I'd need to make to tell squid to ignore streaming media of all types if possible and just pass it through the firewall. I'm sure this problem extends beyond Winamp Shoutcast streams and it would be great if there was a more universal solution to this issue.

      Thanks in advance!
