Enable log_mime_hdrs and pay attention to the Proxy-Authorization
headers sent by the browser. This header contains BASE64 encoded
login:password, and if it shows differences between a failed and a
successful request when you think both should have worked then your
browser is goofing up.

If you see that the browser sent a correct header but Squid still
responded with a 407 reply then Squid or the Squid configuration is at
fault.

Anything in cache.log?
