Configure your access checks to have the users authenticated before they
are being denied access.

Example:

acl all src 0.0.0.0/0
acl authenticated_user proxy_auth REQUIRED
acl denied_site dst www.bad-site.com

# Require that the users authenticates themselves
http_access deny !authenticated_user
# Deny access to some site
http_access deny denied_site
# Users is allowed access unless denied above..
http_access allow all
