Well, the message looks about right. If it doesn't keep repeating, then
squid's probably started up okay. (If it keeps repeating, then squid's
failing to start properly).

The next steps:

ps waxu | grep squid | grep -v grep
        Do you get any output at all? You should see something like:
proxy 343 0.0 10.3 6944 3196 ? S Jun17 1:34
/squid/bin/squid

If you get a process entry, then it's running. If not, your next step is
to find out why not. If it _is_ running:

telnet localhost 3128

Do you get connection refused? Then it's not listening on port 3128.
Find and check your squid.conf and find out what port it _is_ on.
