Hi,

When I try to access an https page and a proxy authentication is required
(in our case is ncsa) IE crash right away. Otherwise https work fine. I
noticed the problem with IE 6 and 5.5 SP2 but not with IE 5.5 SP1. Using
Netscape proxy instead of Squid seems to make IE happy. Is anybody ever
heard of this problem and suggest a fix?

Thanks!

Squid 2.4-STABLE6
