http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl is your best starting 
place.  Read both the "ACL elements" and the "Access Lists" sections.  I 
think the most relevant statement is...

Without knowing the order of your http_access rules, helping you is 
going to be tough.

The FAQ also contains a section regarding common mistakes, and another 
section about debugging ACLs.  Self-help if you prefer it.
