Your external_acl_type has a 1 hour response cache. Meaning it will take
a minimum of 1 hour for any changes to the AD group settings to be
passed on to Squid.

NP: settings for Basic authentication do not have any affect on
non-Basic types of authentication.

There is no TTL for Kerberos user credentials. They are valid for as
long as the TCP connection to the proxy is open. Any change in the
Kerberos security tokens sent by the client after authentication is
completed will terminate/close the TCP connection.

Since your helper names were outdated 6 years ago I assume you are using
Squid-3.1 or older:
<http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.1/cfgman/external_acl_type.html>

Note the default values for ttl= , negative_ttl=, and grace=
