Re: [squid-users] ACL armageddon

See "man 7 regex" on most UNIX:es...

On GNU systems (for example most Linux systems) you can block the word
"chat" by using the "start/end of word" charater class extensions.

     [[:<:]]chat[[:>:]]

note: This is NOT supported by the standalone GNU regex package shipped
with Squid.
