To answer my own question it was due to Citrix ICA Client (I'm using 13.4.0 - latest version) ignoring "Connection: keep-alive" headers in squid 3.3.x and starting new connection breaking the NTLM auth challenge.

Squid 2.6.x sends "Proxy-Connection: keep-alive" with NTLM auth responses which is the only header the Citrix ICA Client appears to accept to maintain keepalive.

What RFC can I point Citrix at so I can submit a bug with them to fix their client and accept both headers? Am I correct in saying that Squid 2.6 is a HTTP/1.0 proxy and 3.x are HTTP/1.1 proxies?
