Thanks for your reply, I agree the empty request is not a concern and is not a 
part of squid.

The issue is

Accessing websites through proxy and squid has following response along with 
being slow

1. No graphical images are obtained for a requested page, I don’t see 
subsequent requests for obtaining images through squid. It gets the main page 
without graphics

2. At times when requests is made a window pops up in the browser that says 

"you have chosen to open http://weblink
Which is a bin file" and provides options to save
 
I don’t understand the reason behind this. Again I am not sure if it is because 
of squid or openssl.

Please clarify.
Regards
Geetha

Ok.

Ok.

Who is logging that "new request = ", and when? I suppose it's from your 
"openssl" proxy.

There is no such thing as an empty HTTP request. You either have an HTTP 
request, or you don't.

The only thing common between pages is that the idle connections gets closed if 
the user waits for too long..

Another thing which is somewhat common is that many clients sent a extra blank 
line after POST requests, but from the data you have shown it does not look 
like this is the issue. (only GET requests was shown).

I'd suggest you look a the HTTP data stream using wireshark and compare this 
with how your proxy behaves.
