None, SQUID does that automatically provided the site provides
adequate and correct freshness info, for any http object it serves.
Check with :

Also :  transparant proxying , can in subttle cases be the cause
of such problems.
Does this work , when the browser is set to use the proxy
directly (through proxy config mechanisms) ?
