    Have setup SquidNT on laptop so can have IE use Firefox cache.
    Also means SquidNT looks after the internet connetion when I'm on different unconnected networks - Direct / proxy1 / proxy2

    cache_peer proxy1 sibling 3128 3130
    cache_peer proxy2 parent 8080 0 no-query default

    when SquidNT working off proxy1 (squid) no problems
    Browsers are fine when connecting directly to proxy2
    when SquidNT working off proxy2 (non-squid, ICP not work) - it won't find any page with a '?' on it.

    I can open www.boards.ie - but then clicking on a link returns: 
    While trying to retrieve the URL: [url]http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?[/url]

The following error was encountered:

    Unable to determine IP address from host name for [url]www.boards.ie[/url] 

The dnsserver returned:

    Timeout 

This means that:

 The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. 
 Check if the address is correct.
    Edit - DNS is OK too.
