U have to set up a acl to allow anyone to access your squid proxy. This part
is quite simple. Go thru the squid docs. or the config file on how to do
this.

Basically in this mode, you set up squid to act as a http server. Squid
proxy recvs the request and then forwards it to your real http server in
case of a cache miss.
There is a whole HOWTO dealing with this issue. Last time I checked it out,
it was enough to get me started with a properly configured proxy!
