Yes.

But currently all users on the network are forced through squid to
browse the web.

I'm opening an exception in the firewall this evening so that I can
turn off the proxy settings on my workstation and go to the firewall
directly. I'll turn off the proxy settings for FireFox so that I can
compare performance against IE, which will be using squid.

Even with the differences between IE and FF rendering pages, it should
be very obvious if squid is the issue, because the page load times
were anywhere from 30+ seconds to minutes to load all pages.

If I get anything like normal response times FF, but not in IE, I'll
have evidence that it's squid. If they both have really crappy times
loading, then it's something else, and I'll be that much further ahead
in troubleshooting.
