First thing would be to track down whether it's squid producing the
message or the web server. There should be a page footer saying which
machine.

If its the web server there is some configuration needed to pass the
authentication on.

If it's squid there is some ACL tweaking to get right. Absence of the
query-string in the error message should not be a problem as long as its
only stripped on displays, not on the request relayed to web server.
