Hello Henrik,
Finally I have solved the hotmail problem.

In my squid.conf file, I had 2 lines as

acl buggy_server url_regex ^http://....
broken_posts allow buggy_server

There was a a POST req in hotmail and this config was creating problem
and
the page simply says DONE without any display.

When I disabled this , hotmail and everything worked fine. Since you are
a
very important person for squid team, I thought I will let u know ab't
this.

Expecting your feedback on this.

Regards,
Raja.
