In our workplace, we are preventing access to networking sites such as friendster, facebook, and etc. through a linux box running squid and iptables. However, some of our client users have manage to use hotspot shield in order access those blocked sites. any idea???

Checkout the blog post @
block-hotspot-shield-for-client-network
This works for following firewalls(tested):
[ul]ClearOS
Zentyal
pfSense[/ul]
to block Hotspot shield Just make a single rule in firewall to allow only “HTTPS”……no other rule……..that’s it..
your “HTTP” traffic is already handled by Squid with transparent mode enabled. B) -
