Makes no difference indeed, I disabled the default contentpage and
browsed directly to cachemgr.cgi with same error after logging on

Yep, that's it!

I first used IE to browse to the page and this browser can use
integrated authentication towards the webpage. IE automatically
authenticated me on the loginpage for cachemgr as a non-admin-user.

I disabled integrated authentication and allowed only basic. It appears
that only administrators can access the page.

I will configure Squid to only allow access from the localhost as basic
authentication isn't really safe.

Thanks for helping out!

Kind regards,
Jeroen.
