You need to tech Squid how to sniff the userid from the traffic in such
case. Actually not too hard, but some coding is needed. I would suggest
starting by using an external acl type for the purpose..

external_acl_type %{Proxy-Authenticate} /path/to/your/helper

and in your custom helper pars the Proxy-Authenticate headers and return
a suitable USER=xxx attribute on Squid when a username is seen.

This will work for the standard HTTP authentication schemes (i.e. Basic
and Digest), but will fail for the Microsoft hacked shemes (i.e.
NTLM/Negotiate/Kerberos) for the same reasons these are hard to proxy...
