This is a proxy server, not a DNS server, and does not connect to a DNS server that we have any control over... The primary/secondary DNS is handled through the primary host (Cox) for all of our servers so we do not want to alter it for all several hundred servers, just these 4 (maybe 6). I was originally thinking of modifying the resolv.conf but again that is internal DNS used by the server itself. The users will have their own DNS settings causing it to either ignore our settings, or right back to the "Website cannot be displayed" errors due to the DNS loop.

So finding a way to redirect in squid should be the better route for us since DNS is not an option....
Essentially www.google.com --> forcesafesearch.google.com

The article does not say to change from a proxy to a DNS server.
Instead, it says to add an entry for google to your own DNS server (the one that Squid uses) and continue to use your proxy.

Marcus,

This is multiple servers used for thousands of customers across North America, not an office, so changing from a proxy to a DNS server is not an option, since we would also be required to change all
several thousand of our customers DNS settings.

I suggest to read this:

and look at option 3 of section 'Keep SafeSearch turned on for your network'
