Since autoupdate FF from version 19 to 20 I can't acces any sites through our squid http proxy over domain authentication. Problem is the same on 2 PCs, one with Windows XP, and one with Windows 7. IE and older FF versions works fine.

Problem is NOT related to foxy proxy - I've already tried without any add-ons.

With https connections, FF just informs thath proxy server refuse connection. With http squid error page is displayed:

ERROR Cache Access Denied.

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.mozilla.org/

   Cache Access Denied.

Sorry, you are not currently allowed to request http://www.mozilla.org/ from this cache until you have authenticated yourself.

Please contact the cache administrator if you have difficulties authenticating yourself or change your default password.
