always_direct only has an effect if you are using parent caches.  Once Squid 
sees the traffic, there is no way for it to not be involved.

I'm not an ipchains expert, but I think that...

ipchains -A input -p tcp -s 192.168.1.3 -d 206.207.85.33 -j ALLOW

...should effectively ignore traffic between that client and that host.  Put 
this rule in front of the "# Bypass for..." rule.
