What is the home directory for your user squid? It should be the cache 
directory (e.g. /var/cache/squid or whatever your system uses). And of course 
you need full access to it:

drwxr-x---   18 squid    root          504 Nov  8 00:15 /var/cache/squid

(the group should be squid in your case, too). So just change the owner of the 
directory to squid (use chown -R).

Sure: simply modify the entry in /etc/passwd with usermod (or if you prefer 
higher risks: use vi ;-)).

Regards,

Peter
