I now set localhost port 3128 as proxy in Firefox and restart Firefox, and update this bug, all seems to work.
On the contrary of Hugues , I don't see any reference to squid in the /var/log/squid/access.log, but I find the references in the /var/log/squid/cache.log

Now stopped squid, set proxy in Firefox back to system, close and restart firefox and all works OK.
