This regex do look a little odd...

  (.*\.|)*

Means anything dot OR nothing, repeated 0 to infinity number of times.

and will always match, but it should not cause a hang.

I think what you actually want there is a something like

  acl ... dstdomain_regex (^|\.)icq.*\.com$

Can you try attaching with a debugger to verify exacly where Squid has
hung:

  gdb /path/to/squid `cat /usr/local/squid/var/log/squid.pid`
  backtrace
