When a square starts and ends with digits dd, then dd is necessarily 44.
The last 2 digits of terms are either 12, 38, 62 or 88.
The sequence is infinite because the numbers 212, 2112, 21112, ..., (19*10^k + 8) / 9, k >= 3, are terms because the remainder when dividing by 1000 is 544 and 445*10^(2*k - 2) < ((19*10^k + 8) / 9)^2 < 447*10^(2*k - 2), k >= 3.
Also 6638, 66338, 663338, 6633338, 66333338, 663333338, 6633333338, ..., (199*10^k + 14) / 3, k >= 2, are terms and have no digits 0, because their squares are: 44063044, 4400730244, 4400730244, 440017302244, 44001173022244, 4400111730222244, 440011117302222244, ... (End)
