If you remember having setup Squid to operate transparently without port

You have to redirect port 80 traffic to the local Squid port. This
isn't optional for transparent operation.

Gotta do it locally, as far as I know. (Not in Squid, but on the
machine on which Squid is running at the network layer.)
