You can use LDAP authentication.  Try squid's LDAP authenticator program
(included with the code), and there's a bunch of instructions on how to
do this.

I think you may also need nss_ldap from PADL.com, but it's doable and
I've done it before.  You'll also need a "proxy" user with which the
authenticator process can log in to AD, since AD doesn't allow
meaningful anonymous queries.
