Help please with seting up SQUID behind a firewall

        I am trying to get squid set up in order to help alleviate _very_ slow
        net access for users behind our corporte firewall.

        All I really need to di is get squid to make it's requests on a
        specific port, which is open to all users, on a known machine, using
        SOCKS.

        I have read the documentation, and don't understand why this should
        require a parent cache. I don't have any way of seting up such an
        animal on the net outside our firewall either.

        Cam someone give me a hand figuring out how to make this work?
