That is over four years old.  You should upgrade.

Thanks for including your squid.conf - that is useful.

However, we also need to see the access.log lines which are generated by the 
three requests:

1. Original request (which downloads from the Internet) from PC1

2. Second request (which gets cached content) from PC1

3. First request (which download from the Internet again) from PC2

By the way, can you confirm that small files do not have the same problem, and 
the cached copy gets sent to PC2 in request number 3 above?


Thanks,


Antony.
