Thanx mate .. Yup that was something that was worrying me .. Cos my
webserver does the auth !!! i.e. a person can get the content without
getting auth, directly from the squid !!! Is there any way, like a auth
setting or some network design.. In which I can use squid as a reverse
proxy but still get away with this non auth thingie.. Ne ideas ??

Are you authenticating using the webserver or is it squid that is doing 
the proxy auth.  'cos if its squid doing the proxy auth then you dont
need 
to bother about what ie caches, it is in any case going to authenticate 
the guy.  But if the auth is done by the webserver then you might just 
have somthing to worry about.
