I followed the anonymous proxy guide:
http://www.howtoforge.com/anonymous-proxy-using-squid-3-centos-5.x

The proxy is working great! I use squid and hamachi to securely browse from wireless hotspots when on business. I don't notice any difference in speed when using the proxy/hamachi and direct connection. Very cool!

I do have one question. Is there a way to bypass the login screen for clients on the local network? I am sure there is an addition to squid.conf to make this happen, but I can't seem to figure it out.

I also configured several other virtual IP addresses (like the guide shows) when installing if there is a way to make one of those bypass the login screen.

Thanks in advance.

I figured it out. I just added this to squid.conf:

acl our_networks src 192.168.1.0/24
http_access allow our_networks

Now the local network clients are not prompted for user/password.
