modify your squid.conf (/etc/squid/squid.conf)

#------------cut here
http_port [squid.machine.internal.ip:]80
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
http_access allow all
icp_access allow all
cache_effective_user squid
cache_effective_group squid
positive_dns_ttl 1 month
negative_dns_ttl 1 minute
httpd_accel_port 8080
httpd_accel_with_proxy on
httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 500 16 256
#------------till here
squid -z
service squid restart
#-----
open your local machines browser options
setup browser to contact proxy
squid.machine.internal.ip:80
#------

If you need messengers or pop clients (outlook) to work through this linux
box, then you need to setup ip forwarding
and run a caching dns server also

edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and add

#---------- from here
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o <interface connected to internet> -j
MASQUERADE
#---------- to here

if you are using dialup to internet, then
[ <interface connected to internet> = ppp0 ]
