Hello, squidGuard really shouldn't keep squid from starting. 'tail -f /var/log/messages' when you restart squid, and you should see why squid is not starting.
I have all my squid and squidGuard files owned by 'nobody' since this is the user that my apache server runs as. I never could get things to start properly until I changed the ownerships.
