42 seconds inactivity threshold is WAY too low for any normal TCP/IP
networking.

But it is very odd that you are seeing traffi beween ports 80 and
3128.. one of the two sides should be "random", so maybe someone is trying to
hack your Squid by using port 80 as source address hoping to bypass some
firewall rules...
