IE have problem with multiple connections and NTLM. You should try to set the following registry values in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" Create the following DWORD values: MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server and MaxConnectionsPerServer For both of them, set the value to 1. Hope this help.

I've managed to get Linux, Samba, and Squid working without bugging anybody. I've run into one hiccup that I'm unable to figure out. I'm requiring ntlm authentication for Squid which works great, but I've had a few calls (and experienced it once myself) where Squid is prompting for authentication after a user has been surfing already. I'm hoping somebody will have some insight for me! Thanks!
