I have never tried squid but it seems quite a big package. I have also
seen oops but not sure which to choose. Basically, will squid not be an
overkill for a family network consisting of 3-4 machines? The box I want
to devote for gateway/pc purposes is a Compaq PIII 866 Mhz with 512 MB RAM
and 40GB HD.

Thank you!
