        It would be easier to answer if you provided information on what you're referring to.  Assuming you're talking about SquidGuard, then yes.

            jigpe, you need to provide information.  Answering such vague posts is, to put it mildly, difficult.

            Are you using:

            1. Firewall aliases to block traffic
            2. Squid
            3. SquidGuard

                To limit bandwidth you need to use the traffic shaper.

                To block, you need to use firewall rules blocking the ports and then combine Squid and SquidGuard to limit remote sites the way you want.
