What he means is that the browser will first attempt to establish itself as a web proxy client anonymously. Even if you've changed your rules to require authentication for outbound web, the browser will still try, fail, and then authenticate itself. In your logs, you'll see this activity, and the anonymous attempt will be logged under "anonymous." t On 1/25/07 2:00 PM, "Greg Mulholland" <gmulholland@xxxxxxxxxxxx> spoketh to all: a good browser will do that!
