squid and firefox slow dns resolution

hi all,

I'm new with squid and i've set up a box with Debian and squid.
On my other machine I have Windows XP with IE and Firefox setup
correctly to use my Squid box as proxy. If I'm browsing with IE,
everything's fine but when I use firefox, it's all goeing really slow.
It takes 30 seconds or more to load a page. If i type the IP address
directly in the address bar it goes fast, so I think the problem has to
do something with dns.

thanks
