On the authentication issue I tried changing log level to 9 for a

server with ASP.NET version 2.  Looks to be using javascript to log
in.

Any ideas what I can change on Squid to make it work?  Its does this
both in transparent and non-transparent modes.  I was hoping maybe
Squid v3 had some improvements that would make it work.

Interception 'transparent' mode ports do not even attempt to perform
authentication.

To clarify, interception/transparent proxy ports don't allow proxy authentication. It should work just fine for authenticating to a web server, be it via HTTP auth or a login form.

 Though with most javascript methods HTTP authentication is
not involved anyway.

Given it's a form that's being POSTed, this doesn't sound like HTTP auth in any case.

Making sure the interception and direct-proxy listening ports are
different should fix it for most users. If the code itself is failing on a
side-band authentication there is nothing you can do to fix it in squid.
Only the sites webmaster can fix those.

Unless Squid is configured to block some important header, or forced to cache pages that are marked private, or...

A look at your squid.conf (without comments) might give the list members a better opportunity to help.
