After considering the fact that Squid works flawlessly with thousands of websites across the Internet, I doubt that this is a Squid bug. I think a better explanation is that Windows Update downloads in a manner that is unfriendly to standards-compliant proxies. A packet sniffer (such as tcpdump) could show just what the problem is.
