[squid-users] - SOLVED - Multi-ISP / Squid 2.6 Problem going DIRECT

SOLVED - Update to Squid 2.6.STABLE14-8.5 and applying patches to
our firewall (Shorewall 4.0.3) did work for us.
Now this works flawlessly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry to bother you, but I don't get it.

We have a SuSE 10.1 system and have our www-traffic going through squid.
Since upgrade from 2.5 to version 2.6 STABLE5-30 (SuSE versions) we notice
that Squid is behaving strange. After running normally a while Squid seems
to go "DIRECT" only and the browsers on the clients seem to hang and or
surfing is ultra slow. This is happening every three or four websites we
try
to access, it seems to work normal for one or two, then the next four or
five
GETs are very slow again and the circle begins again.
In /var/logs/Squid/access.log I see that most of the connections are going
DIRECT, sometimes we get connection timeouts (110) and sometimes we
see that "somehow" an :443 is added to the URL-lines. STRANGE.
Any hints appreciated.
