So my setup is I have transparent proxy that's listening on eth0 
(192.168.bleh) that forwards out ppp0 (external IP).  This takes 
internal clients and transparently proxies them.  If that's your setup, 
here's how I would do it.

Start snort:
sudo snort -Q -D --daq nfq --daq-var device=eth0 --daq-var queue=1 -c 
snort.conf

Snort iptables first:

$iptables -t mangle -I FORWARD -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j NFQUEUE 
--queue-num 1
$iptables -t mangle -I OUTPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j NFQUEUE 
--queue-num 1


Now for Squid
$iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT 
--to-port 3128

This should get you what you need, however keep in mind that snort will 
need to be started first, and because you're sending ONLY port 80 to the 
NFQUEUE, that's all snort will see as that's all that's going to the 
queue.  Lastly, you'll need to modify your rules that you want do drop 
traffic to reflect drop instead of alert...you'll get an alert in your 
unified (if you're doing that) or fast file (if you're doing that as 
well) either way with drop or alert, but drop will actively drop the 
connection.  Check the link below for more info:

Hope that helps.
