So far...
...this particular question has proven to be hard to answer. Most of my Googling has resulted in the same basic answer which is to set the IE6 browser to use http 1.1 when proxying. I also posted on a Windows list and the people there (who use Squid) recommended making that same change for Squid either by using a logon script or manually editing the appropriate key in the mandatory profile. So this is going to be a hard one to resolve for our Windows admin. There isn't really anything that can be done on the Squid side of the equation since the problem lies within the IE6 browser's implementation of http 1.0. There is supposedly a hotfix, but it's not recommended by MS and isn't included in the latest updates nor will it be in the future. The Windows admin is certain that even if we applied the hotfix (which reverts to an older DLL) that the DLL would be replaced with a newer one from the DLL Cache or overwritten by newer XP or IE updates that are automatically applied by the SUS server. So, the ONLY answer appears to be to find a way to set all proxied browsers to use http 1.1.

cachemgr.cgi
cachemgr.cgi(8) System Manager's Manual cachemgr.cgi(8)
NAME
cachemgr.cgi - squid HTTP proxy manager interface
SYNOPSIS
http://your.server/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi
DESCRIPTION
The cache manager (cachemgr.cgi) is a CGI utility for displaying statistics about the Squid HTTP proxy process as it runs. The cache man-
ager is a convenient way to manage the cache and view statistics without logging into the server.
FILES
./cachemgr.conf
@DEFAULT_CACHEMGR_CONFIG@
The access configuration file defining which Squid servers may be managed via this cachemgr.cgi program. Each line specifies a
server:port followed by an optional description
The server name may contain shell wildcard characters such as *, [] etc. A quick selection dropdown menu is automatically con-
structed from the simple server names.
Specifying :port is optional. If not specified then the default proxy port is assumed. :* or :any matches any port on the target
server.
SECURITY
cachemgr.cgi calls the requested server on the requested port using HTTP and returns a formatted version of the response. To avoid abuse it
is recommended to configure your web server to restrict access to the cachemgr.cgi program.
Configuration examples for many common web servers can be found in the Squid FAQ.
