The first thing that comes to mind is transparent proxying - you can
just skip it for some sites.



If you want to not transparently proxy the 12.34.56.0/24 network, for
example, this command will do it:


  /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -d 12.34.56.0/24 -j RETURN


You can append this to /etc/rc.local





If I remember correctly, this is the syntax for the
/etc/squid/squid.conf ACL:


  acl somewhere dstdomain somewhere.com
  no_cache deny somewhere
