      Hi all,

      I have installed the current version of Squid3 package (0.4.7).

      It is configured as transparent proxy an runs fine so far. Every external proxy test tells me I am running through a proxy. Nice  :)

      Now I have enabled the virus check with ClamAV.  Well, it seems to be running so far, too.

      I downloaded the Eicar Test virus an I can see in the logs:

      
Date-Time 	Message 	Virus 	URL 	Host 	User
31.03.2016 10:23:51 	VIRUS FOUND 	Eicar-Test-Signature 	http://c.rosu.free.fr/eicar.zip

      Unfortunately I did not get forwarded to a different URL. Instead I was able to download the Virus (an my local virus check complained as expected).

      So it appears ClamAV detects viruses but does not prevent frm downloading.

      What config item did I miss?

      Thanks
