What do you want to achieve?

Earlier, you implied that you do not want to see a request in Squid
logs. As Amos have said, Squid cannot "unsee" the transaction: Once the
transaction reaches Squid, Squid will handle it (forward, block, delay,
mangle, log, etc.). If you want Squid to not see a transaction, then all
the solutions will be outside of Squid and its directives. Please
explain what you want with this fact in mind.
