am asking because I have reasons to be believe something fishy to be
going on with the computer I expose to the Internet.

I still can't understand what the big deal is. The port is defined on

http_port 3128

standard port for squid, makes squid listen on port 3128 of all available
interfaces.
If that's your local machine, localhost (3128) is one of those and if you
want to stop others from accessing it, you can configure

http_port localhost:3128


The value 3128 you enter on your network browser settings

what I need now is the name of the running listening service which
you can get via:

netstat -tl

but I couldn't get squid running apparently due to problems related
to using a prefix other than its default:

$ which squid
/media/knoppix/squid3/4.15/sbin/squid

$ squid start
2021/05/29 15:33:48| ERROR: unlinkd_program /lib/squid3/unlinkd: (2)

how can I fix such problems?

it's possible that squid was compiled without unlinkd support. In such case,
you don't need that directive.

we can guess that unlinkd lives in /media/knoppix/squid3/4.15/sbin/unlinkd or somewhere under /media/knoppix/squid3/4.15 directory
