The ! means NOT in boolean and squid.conf access language.

The very next thing I said was "With SSL_Ports defining what HTTPS ports
are safe to use."
... meaning that you had to add back in the SSL_Ports acl definition which
appears to have been lost somewhere.

acl SSL_Ports port 443

Yes that was the one. Best to keep all the file extension patterns together
if you can so you don't miss one when changing things later.

Ah, well both of the above two dot patterns do the same thing. Catching all
requested objects not matched by something in the patterns above it. I
hadn't read the other email when I wrote that, pick the one you want to
use.

Note that the 'reload' being ignored is an explicit instruction sent by the
browser when the user goes to all the trouble of pressing shift+f5. They
usually do this when they have clue AND know that the page and stuff on it
is obsolete. There were some very old versions of IE that sent this with
each request, but those are fast being replaced with fixed versions
nowdays.
