I think the problem is that MRTG (recent versions, at least) always
wants to query for sysName and sysUptime, whatever OIDs you ask it to
graph, and whatever the setting for routerUptime. It queries on the
same port you're monitoring in the Target specification. This might
work if Squid was front-ending your system SNMP daemon (not tried
that), but otherwise causes MRTG to barf and crash out.

Being lazy and in a hurry, I made a separate copy of the mrtg script
and changed these values to OIDs which Squid always makes available.
This should really be fixed by MRTG itself, though...

Ciao!
