So you want the router to transparently redirect requests to Squid, and
Squid to send all requests through a Windows proxy that requires
authentication?

IIRC, this can be done. See the cache_peer directive in squid.conf - there
are options that allow for sending of authentication credentials to the
parent proxy.

Note that a single credential set would be used for all the clients, because
Squid is operating as a transparent proxy and cannot get any authentication
information from the clients.
