Excerpt from the SquidGaurd FAQ:
squidGuard does not block?
There my be at least 2 reasons for this:
You didn't end your pass rules with "none". Pass rules ends with an
implicit "all". It is good practice to allways en the pass rules
with either "all" or "none" to make them clear. Ie. use:
pass good none
or
pass good !bad all
squidGuard goes into emergency mode. Reasons may be syntax errors in
the config file, reference to non existing database files,
filprotection problems or missing directories. Check the squidGuard
log.
Note:When run under Squid, squidGuard is run with the same user and
group ID as Squid (cache_effective_user and cache_effective_group
in squid.conf). The squidGuard configuration and database files must
be readable for this user and/or group and the squidGuard log
directory must be writable for this user and/or group. If not
squidGuard will go into the "pass all for all" emergency mode.
