RE: [squid-users] squidGuard

Is it possible to have the same idea as below, to redirect to some other url
if someone browses to a paritcular domain (hotmail.com) based on the
USER_AGENT header sent by the client (Internt Explorer). I have a huge
problem where hotmail crashses our workstation, but works fine in Netscape.

Yours
Mr. Adam ALLEN.
