squid still working even if killed?

Dear squid users

1) I did a 'squid -k shutdown' on my linux box inorder to stop the
proxy. I then checked if squid is running by doing 'squid -k
check' and returned with a message "squid: ERROR: No running copy"

I then tested by browser (Netscape) if I could still access the Net and
found that I could readily access any site! What's wrong? Why is the
proxy allowing me to access the net when it says I don't have a running
copy of squid?

I checked the processes and it gave me the ff:

[squid@dale errors]$ ps aux |grep squid
squid 29799 0.0 0.6 1268 852 p1 S 20:40 0:00 -bash

squid 30388 0.0 0.6 1268 852 p1 R 20:52 0:00 -bash

2) How do I start squid from command line?

Please help!
