no, it really is running in transparent mode. 'Transparent proxy' is checked in the squid config gui. But that only affects port 80, not the secure port.

to true transparent mode, which works with firefox and any other
browser.

Yeah I was a bit confused by the question as well. If you are using Squid in a non-transparent mode then you'll need to use firewall rules to block port 80 traffic appropriately so that only the requests that go through the proxy are allowed. Otherwise moving to a transparent proxy should provide you the behavior you're expecting.
