[squid-users] no-store is ignored when using squid

Hello,

My compagny has a website which sends the http responce header
'Cache-Control: no-store' with certain webpages. This all works fine without
using squid (nothing is stored locally) but when I connect to that website
via squid the webpages are stored locally (on my laptop, squid does not
cache the pages).

Squid: 2.2stable
Webclient: Internet Explorer 5 (the website only works with IE)

I used ethereal to investigate the packages which were send between my
laptop and the webserver. I observed this difference in the http response
header:

Has anyone observed this behavior too and found a solution for it? Perhaps
it's an IE 'feature', perhaps I can tweak squid, but at this time I have
lost it :-| Thanks for the time taken!
