All the easy ways:

Alternatively plug the users switch into one NIC and the DSL box into
the second NIC. Setup the squid box as a full router gateway between the
two sides, it can then do whatever NAT interception you need for the
"transparent" interception, or simply firewall access or software/people
which do not use the proxy gateway.
