Are you using HTTP Basic authentication with Apache? Are you doing any authentication with Squid? Does the client know there's a proxy in the middle or is it transparent? Also, I'd suggest updating to the latest version of Squid-2.6. I don't think any bugs were fixed that relate to your specific problem behaviour but its always a good idea to follow the Squid releases. If in doubt, do a tcpdump capture of the session to see the response and reply between client<->squid and squid<->server; that way we'll have access to the requests and replies and can see whats going on.
