Use tcpdump to inspect what the DNS traffic looks like. Also verify this
on the DNS server (assuming you have a local DNS server).
From your description it sounds like there is a firewall problem blocking
DNS access after a while. Restarting Squid may help to such problems as a
new UDP port is then allocated for DNS queries.
