ondemandemails,

You have the following options

1. Uninstall the squid ( have some look at rpm -e command)
2. Disable the squid services by running "setup" at CLI.

Then from there you can install the new squid via rpm or compile it with your own.

Cheers!

i dnt know y but evry thing is working but we r not able to ping the network computers.
cards r active. ip addresses are given correctly. firewall is off, network services are enabled. squid, squidguard disabled etc..
