You can't. Squid is a HTTP/FTP proxy, but razor doesn't use either of those
protocols to communicate with the razor servers.

Squid can proxy HTTP requests, FTP, requests Gopher requests. However it cannot
proxy arbitrary Internet traffic such as IRC, SSH, Telnet, SMTP, etc. That's
what a Socks5 proxy is for.

Squid is essentially intended to be a file-transfer caching system. It does so
by acting as a proxy for protocols that transfer files. Socks5 on the other
hand, isn't a cache, it's just a proxy, and it can proxy any TCP/IP request the
client may have.

However, these days, very few people use socks5 proxyies. They use stateful
firewalls with overloaded-NAT (aka PAT) instead. It works in a similar fashion,
but is transparent to the client.

If you have a real proxy, such as a SOCKS5 proxy, you might be able to get razor
to use that. However, right now there don't seem to be any options to do so.

You might be able to use a tool like "socksify" from the Dante proxy package to
launch your razor tools inside a socks-capable wrapper.

You might also be able to just re-compile Razor2 with the appropriate socks
library linked in (ie: -lsocks).
