+Squirm is a fast & configurable redirector for the Squid.
+
+Squirm has the following features:
+
+     -Very, very fast
+     -Virtually no memory usage
+     -It can re-read it's config files while running by sending it a HUP signal
+     -Interactive test mode for checking new configs
+     -Full regular expression matching and replacement
+     -Config files for patterns and IP addresses.
+     -If you mess up the config file, Squirm runs in Dodo Mode so your squid
+      keeps working :-)
+
+It has been written because the existing redirector scripts used too much
+memory and all were too slow for Squids that receive a lot of requests.
+
+It can handle nifty things like file mirrors with the regex pattern replacement
+strings, and do site blocking - useful for schools. It could also do such
+things as banner add rewriting, and just about anything else :-)
