Maybe.. or your client is sending bad information. In either case Squid 
just logs whatever it got from the client.

In Squid-2.5.STABLE4 redirectors got the username exacly as-is, making the 
redirector protocol fail badly on usernames with spaces and similar "odd" 
situations.

redirectors get the username URL-encoded just as it is in access.log.
