[squid-users] Bad Method

I am using Squid 3 as a transparent proxy on a NAT server to limit access to the Intermahweb.

It's part of a Network Access Control solution, pre-registered users are stuck in a private VLAN.

Squid is seeing a lot of "Bad Request Methods", that look like:

squid[]: [ID 702911 daemon.notice] clientParseRequestMethod: Unsupported method in request '__*__U___OX_ ___B___&_<U____________'_____gA%__p_'

Is this something trying to do HTTPS on port 80?

Can I stop squid logging these, because I know already!

We have a script locally that picks up on "unusual" entries in log files and mails them to me, I don't want telling anymore!

Thanks....
