Question Referer HTTP Headers and Squid


i have set some header_access tags in my squid.conf in order to enhance my browser's privacy a little bit... one of the headers i'm filtering is Referer:
Code:
header_access Referer deny all
i like filtering this outbound info, but the problem is that some servers apparently use this header for some kinda profiling or something... so on certan websites i get a lot of images that don't load, or worse i get (instead) images with INSULTS and stuff ("image hotlinkers suck #$@!", etc.)...

so i'd like to make certain exceptions to the header_access deny rule...

i'd like to use an ACL to say (for example):

Quote:
If linuxquestions.org is being accessed, then don't filter the Referer header.
how can i do that??
