But i am having the Hotmail problem not only with IE-6, but also with
Netscape Navigator and IE-5. :).

So the previous workaround is better ;).
        i..e. acl hotmail_domains dstdomain .hotmail.msn.com
        header_access Accept-Encoding deny hotmail_domains

And i don;t think its wise to blame this on squid, 'coz i tried the same
thing on another proxy (tinyproxy-1.7): -

    Browser(IE and Netscape) ----> tinyproxy-1.7 with transparent
redirection ----> www

and found a blank page for Hotmail.

It seems that transparent redirection is doing the mess. ;)
