underscore not allowed in hostname with squid

Well, the title says it all. A URL with underscores in the hostname part works with a "direct connection", but not through squid.

Workaround: Escape codes are given in places like this - http://www.dragonwinds.com/resources/html-codes.shtml are not enough - they are meant for the HTML.

http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-users/200208/0565.html
has a discussion on it and says that you need to recompile squid for it to work with underscores.
