How set up Linux to be a transparent middleman like this?

I know that browsers can be set up to point to a proxy but
I don't know how to set up the proxy after that.

Perhaps something with netcat?

Does it have to be transparent?
If not, you can setup ssh to work as a socks proxy(ssh -D 1080 your.host.com) and use it for most web browsers.
