[wellylug] Squid proxy error with Qantas website

Hello,
I have a Squid proxy that for the last year has been running perfectly.
Then as of about a month ago the Qantas website stopped working  
through the proxy.
Nothing has changed on the proxy side of things but I have noticed a  
visit to http://www.qantas.co.nz redirects you through a number of  
different urls before arriving at http://www.qantas.com.au/regions/ 
dyn/home/qualifier-region-nz

This is the Squid access log message:
1118179889.279 149613 10.0.0.199 TCP_MISS/504 1449 GET http:// 
www.qantas.com.au/regions/dyn/home/qualifier-region-nz -  
FIRST_UP_PARENT/127.0.0.1 text/html

Once the browser is redirected to http://www.qantas.com.au/regions/ 
dyn/home/qualifier-region-nz nothing happens (after a while a timeout  
occurs).

I have tried flushing the Squid cache but this has had no effect.

Squid is version 2.5 running on an up-to date ClarkConnect 2.2 (Red  
Hat 9 equivalent) server.

Is there a setting in Squid to make it not cache www.qantas.com.au/*  
url's?
Has anyone experienced a similar issue with Squid and Qantas (or  
similar)?

Regards,


David
