If I am interpreting those log lines and what you are saying correctly
then the top log line is the fetch, which redirects (301 status) to the
second URL.

Either the download was fetched with Range header and the
ABORTED/disconnection is how Squid receives the "pause" action from the
client, (thats normal)
 OR
the resume uses a Range request to fetch the incomplete part of the
object. The client then aborts with it still incomplete for some unknown
reason. (thats strange)

Its not clear what the problem is you speak of. What more can you say
about it?

Those log lines contain no query-string. You can identify lines affected
by that parameter because they all end with a '?' in the log when its
turned on.
