Thanks Henrik, That was my issue with Firefox - it now authenticates just fine. I've been unable to get IE (6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.080814-1233) to authenticate. I know this isn't a squid-specific thing, but any ideas what setting in IE may be responsible for this? If not, no problem. I appreciate your rapid response on my main issue.
