The problem is the autentificación NTLM of Windows7. It is necessary to
create the following key in the registry to solve it (I'm using Squid
Version 3.0.STABLE8 in Debian Lenny):

1. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
If it doesn’t exist, create a DWORD value named LmCompatibilityLevel and set
the value to 1 to use LM NTLM and NTLMv2 if is negociated, this is
Also it works establishing the value to 0, and 3 though for more safety the
value using 3 though with old operating systems it will not work on having
used obligatorily NTLMv2.

2. Reboot
