this seems to me to just be a poorly configured proxy server.  the
following acl's take care of that problem nicely, on squid anyway.

acl SSL_ports port 443 563
acl Safe_ports port 80 21 70 1025-5999 6011-65535
acl CONNECT method CONNECT
http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports
http_access deny !Safe_ports

this would seem to me a simple, and proper way to stop that problem nicely
with squid.
