This is probably due to the acl list of safe ports in default squid.conf. If
you use default configuration created by the make process, you should find
and edit the following line in your squid.conf:

acl Safe_ports port 80 21 443 563 70 210 1025-65535

add the desired port into the list and restart squid with "-k reconfigure"
