[squid-users] ACL blocks, browser retries constantly

I have a simple ACL helper that fails whenever a user should no longer have
access (I need a way of dynamically blocking access to the proxy on a
per-user basis).

But when the ACL fails the request, the browser goes into a vicious cycle of
continuing to re-try the same request indefinitely and just hammering the
proxy.

Bad for the proxy, and looks bad to the user (it's not clear why the browser
is going crazy). Any thoughts on how I should deal with this problem?

Thanks,
David
