You simply need to comment out the "http_port XXXXX intercept" and give the process a HUP.

I am using squid like that in a situation where both my PC and the one squid is running on have the same default route to the Internet.

My Unix box:

wash@jaribu:~$ netstat -rn

Which other manuals are out there I can go through?

Hello,

Squid 3.3.8 is now working as the earlier versions I have used before in transparent mode.
Its giving me "warning forwarding loop detected for" in cacge.log and "Access Denied." on the browser.

Anyone with any pointers on how t use it in transparent mode?
