Squid is not designed to work offline. The problem is that when you
request a page which is in cache but which has been fetched some time
ago, Squid checks that the page didn't change. Moreover, Squid
respects instructions of the web server about caching (including no
caching at all).
As stated in another post, you will have better luck with wwwoffle
which is especially designed for this. However, if you want to use
Squid, there is an offline mode which disables checks against
recentness. See your squid.conf and search "offline_mode".
