Hello all, I am trying to troubleshoot an issue I am stuck on. We have a website that is loading .htm documents extremely slow when using Internet Explorer 8 behind Squid. When we bypass the proxy and go directly out to the internet all is fast and pages load fine. But when the proxy is on documents will take sometimes up to 6 minutes to load. This issue is only apparent using Internet explorer 8. I do not see the issue when using firefox with Squid. I have tried to use the no_cache directive thinking it may have been the cache but that didn't work either. I am attaching our access.log, store.log and squid.conf. Can anyone see what is going on here? I have been stumped for a week solid. store.log Wed Mar 31 06:10:35 2010 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF A36B60438D93991E458DE08228DEB8AB 0 -1 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://example.exmp.com/NSValidation.js Wed Mar 31 06:10:35 2010 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 17A9A4E4A51DEF4D34825040A9A79C78 0 -1 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://example.exmp.com/NSWebForms.js Wed Mar 31 06:10:35 2010 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF E22614CB42B208827CD18D8027B51E24 200 1270410086 -1 -1 text/html 24383/24383 GET http://example.exmp.com/PICDetail.aspx?
