      I just finished installing pfSense 2.3 and added the latest package of squid proxy (version 4.32), I configured squid with basic parameters (http://imgur.com/a/5cZnS), I started the service, then I enabled the squid proxy on chrome and it made my internet go down getting this error (http://imgur.com/a/roR0H) , I accessed the cache log file and didn't quite figure out the problem (http://imgur.com/a/rDi3U), as of the access log it's empty of course, and this is what the tab Real Time of squid shows (http://imgur.com/a/AK5br) 
      please help

        Why disable ICMP Pinger…?

        You sure the service is running and that the cache was created properly?

          After last update of squid package I have the same problem. Not all pages, but many of them can't be opened, squid shows only that info - permission denied - no more why, how… not good.

              I read in some other forum that ICMP pinger could cause connectivity troubles, should I activate it back?

                  Lets try it the other way round - why'd you enable it? Are you configuring some upstream proxies in there? If not, the thing is completely useless.

                    I disabled it because someone told me it might cause additional issues, and no I'm not configuring upstream proxies

                      Yeah, leave that disabled, you certainly are not missing any functionality there.

                          Strangely, I have always left it as default, which was enabled, never really knew what it was for, just stood out to me when I noticed ICMP disabled on his config.  Never has caused me issues leaving it enabled.

                              Problem is with Snort, not with squid or squidguard. Try add pass list with alias (-es) in Snort. I installed clear Pfsense only with Snort and had the same errors like then, when I installed squid and SG.
