Assuming this doesn't violate your network's usage policy, you can redirect all
web traffic to pass through your transparent proxies. So when a user in your
network explicitly specifies a different proxy (e.g. proxy.isp.com:3128), you
can redirect that request to your own proxy using a tool such as iptables.

Since you've already setup a transparent proxy, I assume you've already done
some redirecting rules on your router/firewall (to move all web traffic to pass
through the proxy). So writing one to catch all outgoing proxy requests should
just be another rule. Take note that some proxies may run on non-standard ports
(e.g. 4430, 8080, 8000, 8800, etc), so that's kinda hard to catch.
