| How are you specifying the proxy?

Through the GUI (Settings->Preferences , Advanced , Network ).

user_pref("network.proxy.http", "localhost");
user_pref("network.proxy.http_port", 3128);
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 1);

That was probably the problem.  I had restarted galeon, but that
didn't seem to have an effect.  I've now set galeon's disk cache to 0
since squid will take care of it.

Thanks!
