Whether it works or not is dependent on the state of the Internet - which can be quite volatile. If you have disabled IPv6 please ensure that your method if disabling is firewall reject rules with appropriate ICMPv6 responses rather than kernel hacks or dropping packets. A lot of old texts says things like disabling kernel modules or interfaces does it - they are wrong. All that does is break IPv6 on the relevant machine, which can result in this type of behaviour for software like Squid following IP handling requirements. If you have disabled all ICMP traffic on your network please fix that. ICMP is not an optional protocol and admin blocking it in firewalls can cause major problems when IPv6 relies on it for routing. Specifically for MTU detection: <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4890> <https://sites.google.com/site/ipv6center/icmpv6-is-non-optional> If you are able to track the IPv6 issue down to a network beyond yours please help everyone if you can by contacting the relevant admin and trying to get them to fix their network.
