Anyone have any idea why this is not working like it used to, on my other box it will give the prompt where I can enter my username and password and it returns ok.

Weird, but it is saying --helper-option= is not one of the command-line
options.

I think that is a squid internal option to tell squid how to connect to
the helper.
