The websense redirectors don't understand the quoting of
non-alphanumeric characters in the username that was introduced by
squid after 2.5. To use a later version of squid you need to rewrite
the username to convert the quoted characters back to their ascii
form, your site may be different but we just rewrite the %5c back to \
and it all works fine. You need to chain a small script in front of
the websense redirector that performs the rewrite, it works fine.

I have this issue going to another site too - the interesting thing is
if I use our border squid server then I can download a pdf from a
particular site BUT if I use a squid server inside our network that
parents off the border squid server then I get a similar error to what
Ryan sees. I tried talking to the site admin but he does not seem to
know what is going wrong.
 
We are using squid 2.7 STABLE 6
