You have already verified. It's definitely an interception problem
outside of Squid. How its solved will depend on your systems. Was it
WCCP, iptables (REDIRECT), transparent policy routing, other firewall
interception?

I don't have a lot of time this week but I'll see what I can do. With
the answer to the above question, locate the Squid wiki FAQ entries for
your interception/transparency type and check that your config matches.
