  What about setting up snort sensors to sniff the LAN for HTTP proxy
  traffic by excluding the "good" IPs as sources? Or the other way round:
  Configuring the IDS to sniff HTTP Proxy connections to the "good" IPs?
  This should bring up those who connect to those proxies as well as the
  proxies themselves.

  Cheers,


                                                         Chris Kronberg.
