The popup is part of the web browsers security system. Squid has nothing to do 
with that.

Modern browsers can be configured with a login cache for website and proxy 
logins. Once the master password is given the others are handed out as needed 
to the right places.

Use of secure auth protocols (Digest, NTLM, Kerberos) can also help the browser 
send pre-encrypted tokens without needing a popup. Squid can participate there 
by being configured to use them.  Basic auth protocol has the password in 
visible text form, so handing it out without user consent is a bad idea and 
browser wont do it.
