Turn down the distortion and back the hell away from the speakers.
Also, squire strats have kinda shltty pickups so that doesn't help things. I've seen some interesting problems they can have, like randomly clipping the entire signal quieter than when you bang on the strings.

Get a new guitar. I had a similar problem with my squire. Once i got a new guitar everything was fine. First try changing settings though and make sure the amps not set to destortion aswell as the pedal !
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.

I gotta represent now :)
If you're getting a new guitar, buy Cort. You can get a middle-range quality from them for about the same as a p.o.s. squire, and if you spend not too different from $600 you can get a completely professional quality guitar from them (depending on if you like the pickups, I'm the only person I know who doesn't).
Cort is in Korea. They also make guitars for Fender (and maybe jackson, since they're owned by fender), Epiphone, Ibanez, Schecter, BC Rich, Agile, Conklin, and a couple smaller ones I can never remember.
