Q: How to limit download size in squid proxy ?

So when a replay body comes the "reply_body_max_size" parameter checks and deny if file size is larger than 50MB.
[root@server ~#]vi /etc/squid/squid.conf
#First create an acl
acl limited_users src 192.168.0.0/24
#Deny downloading larger than 50MB for above acl
reply_body_max_size 50 MB limited_users
Reload squid service
[root@server ~#]service squid reload

Thats right... it works. But do you know there is still a loop hole. Whenever any client behind the proxy wants to download a file of larger size, they can easily download any size of file by just putting interrogation[ ? ] at the end of download url.
Now what we can do to block this??
