Hello,

If you sure that it can restart after a crash then make a shell script that
checkes if squid is running. If not running then just run it. After add an
entry to the cron jobs that runs the script every desired time (5mins maybe
or every minute. It's up to you.)

Also, think of that there maybe a severe error that prevents squid from
running.
