Your client sent a malformed request making Squid very confused..

Get the client fixed.

Probably it is the authetication part in the client that is broken.

If in doubt use ethereal or similar sniffer tool to inspect the request
send by your client.

Thanks Henrik,

The client is Microsoft IE, so I can't get it fixed and due to SOE, we can't use another client.

I don't really know what I am looking for with regard to the authentication part being broken but I will have a look anyway.

Regards,
Brad.
