Now, I'm no expert at Squid (and I imagine there is a Squid mailing list) but if you
set up Squid on
the firewall, it can act as a transperant proxy server, meaning that it will sit on
your firewall and
all web traffic (as well as some other traffic depending on your configuration) will
be proxied by
Squid. This doesn't require any changes to your client machine's browsers (I don't
think).
I don't think you need to bother writing any special IPChains rules to do this.
