Most times I have seen this it's been a browser problem. It is the
browser who maintain the session cache, sending the login + password to
Squid in each and every request.

What do access.log say? If you see 407 responses with a - in the
username field then no login details was supplied to Squid in the
request.


I have occasionally seen browsers behave in this manner if not yet
logged in to the browser and the HTML was cached or did not require
authentication.

This is also a known problem with Java applets as these run within the
Java runtime environment which provides it's own HTTP functions not
using the browser..

Works fine for me using Firefox and Squid-2.6.
