I have not tried ISP's dns as I've found Googles to be faster. I can try
that test tonight when I get home though to rule out the possibility.
As for #2 I understand I just find it odd the prior install although
poor hit rate still produce results were the current install is at 0
after a week. Our traffic hasn't changed we still surf the same sites.
The kids are typically on facebook, youtube, and game sites and the wife
on school and work as I am.

#1. Initial page lookups are really slow. When I enter a website it will

As a test, have you tried using your ISP's caching DNS servers
instead, and does it make any difference?
#2. Squid is active and working but hit rate has been zero. It's been
running a week now. Prior install I would average a really poor .5 -2%.
I'm not sure what to do. I'm on Google over load now trying to find the
answers and so far my config seems to be in line with general
recommendations.
A great many websites these days rely on dynamic content and send
cache-control headers to prevent proxies like Squid from caching
things. You can play with Squid's settings to ignore some
cache-control headers, but obviously there are risks of delivering
your clients out of date content by doing that.
Kind regards,
Chris
