It seems really strange to me that you get different results depending on
whether you use a graphical or text browser.

There must be something else about the setup of these which is different,
causing the discrepancy.

What happens if you try simplifying things and just pointing the browser at
the SquidGuard (ie bypass the plain Squid proxy) - what happens then?

Do you get any useful information in logfiles on the SquidGuard machine (I
don't use SquidGuard, so I don't know what it tells you) to confirm that it
is processing the request, or what category it thinks the request matches?
