WELCOME TO SQUID 3.0.STABLE25-20100412
	----------------------------

	This is the default Squid configuration file. You may wish
	to look at the Squid home page (http://www.squid-cache.org/)
	for the FAQ and other documentation.

	The default Squid config file shows what the defaults for
	various options happen to be.  If you don‘t need to change the
	default, you shouldn‘t uncomment the line.  Doing so may cause
	run-time problems.  In some cases "none" refers to no default
	setting at all, while in other cases it refers to a valid
	option - the comments for that keyword indicate if this is the
	case.

  Configuration options can be included using the "include" directive.
  Include takes a list of files to include. Quoting and wildcards is
  supported.

  For example,

  include /path/to/included/file/squid.acl.config

  Includes can be nested up to a hard-coded depth of 16 levels.
  This arbitrary restriction is to prevent recursive include references
  from causing Squid entering an infinite loop whilst trying to load
  configuration files.

	This section contains parameters for the (optional) cache

	An ‘announcement‘ message is sent (via UDP) to the registration
	service by Squid.  By default, the announcement message is NOT
	SENT unless you enable it with ‘announce_period‘ below.

	The announcement message includes your hostname, plus the
	following information from this configuration file:

		http_port
		icp_port
		cache_mgr

	All current information is processed regularly and made
	available on the Web at http://www.ircache.net/Cache/Tracker/.
