Squid gurus


Hi all,

Here is my senario.

We have about 7000 users using a squid proxy running on RH. How can I get stats (for the overheads)
on who goes where and when? IE 
172.1.2.3 goes to www.playboy.com 02.01.01 @ 14:00
or something like that.
I've looked at the log analisers on squid.org but they all seem to fall short somewere. (Like
displaying 7000 ipnumbers in a row.)
I used to get that type of stat from our firewall but since the squid of course the firewall only
reports the squid's ip. 
Can I tell squid not to "NAT" the addresses??
Any ideas on scripting the logs as they also get mighty BIG. 30 MB after an hour. 
Thanks
