I had not thought to test that. I will do that today.

In regards to Yuri's comments on firewall vs squid - I don’t agree that a 
firewall would be a direct replacement in this case.

The 30-40 URIs I need to access resolve to a potential pool of several million 
IP addresses, and the pool of IP addresses gets updated multiple times per 
year. Writing rules at the network level would not be practical to implement 
even one time, let alone maintain over time. A more expensive firewall that is 
able to implement ACLs by hostname would be needed, and options for virtual 
firewalls hosted in Azure are limited. It would also require either 
implementing many static routes, or a transit network with a virtual router, 
and this environment will be supported by an organization that does not have a 
network engineer on staff.

I understand that there is very little functionality I need to leverage, but I 
like Squid, as it is a name that most people in IT will recognize and be able 
to google.

I may still review privoxy however. If it is simple enough that supporting it 
would be something easy to just figure out with minimal research, it may still 
be a good option. I like simple, but high supportability is mandatory
