All fixed now guys, thanks to hno on squid irc.

It was because I was redirecting traffic on port 80 to 8080 and my http_port was set to this
http_port 192.168.1.2:80 transparent

so simply changed the port to be 8080 has fixed the issue.

Cheers

Jason

I've installed squid 2.6STABLE13 and its popping up this error in the web browser unless the browser is specifically set up to use the proxy:

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to process the request:

The following error was encountered:

    * Invalid Request

Some aspect of the HTTP Request is invalid. Possible problems:

    * Missing or unknown request method
    * Missing URL
    * Missing HTTP Identifier (HTTP/1.0)
    * Request is too large
    * Content-Length missing for POST or PUT requests
    * Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed

I've put in http_port 80 transparent in squid.conf, as far as I'm aware that is all that's needed for it to work in transparent mode now?
