Somebody's probing to see if you're an open proxy to send spam through.
Chances are that a site that's got a open-proxy webserver (older Squid
releases had particular issues there), that they don't keep good logs and
the spammer can send a whole bunch of spam through without leaving much
of a useful trail....
