Files not cached

I may be missing something obvious but...

I want to cache accesses to large multimedia files such as WAVs, MOVs
and AVIs. So I added this line to my squid.conf:

ttl_pattern \.avi$ 7200 100% 43200

To me this reads cache all requests ending in ".avi" for 5 days unless
it has a last modified timestamp in which case cache it for 100% of the
time difference between that and the current timestamp. Am I right in
thinking that an AVI cannot have a last modified timestamp so the
former will always apply?

Anyway, the test in question:

http://www.movies.warnerbros.com/twister/dld/trailer.avi

is never cached.

Any ideas?

Pete.
