I'm using squid-2.5.STABLE1-2 in a small LAN and ymessenger is
blocked by default in it conf file. Not sure if ymessenger
uses other ports to go out but if I want to allow ymessenger 
for client pcs, i enable access to port 5050 (scs.yahoo.com:5050)
via "acl messenger_port port 5050" and "http_access allow messenger_port"
option in squid.conf.

hth.
