Hey i know SQUID can block ports but is it possible to configure SQUID to deny connections to certain ports and if so how do you do it?

Sorry for the TYPO please let me re-write my question...
I know SQUID can't block ports but is it possible to configure SQUID to deny connections to certain ports like Email and IM ports?

Yes it is but it is not the best thing to do.
There has been a similar post a few weeks ago with a guy that refused to use iptables, which is the better thing to do.
You can create acl lists to block ports but, I repeat, iptables is the way to go.

If I could have sex each time I reboot my server, I would definitely prefer Windoz over Linux!
