From the information given to you by the maintainers of the parent
proxy. If they haven't given ICP information to you then you probably
shoulnd't use ICP to that peer..

To disable ICP add the no-query option. I usually also set the ICP port
to 0 in these cases to further illustrate that ICP is not used.

If you want Squid to distribute the requests over the two cache_peer
lines then yes.

By making two different host names for the parent in your /etc/hosts
file, and list these names in squid.conf instead of the IP address.

Just place the contents in a file with a suitable name so you remember
what the file is about, and make the file executable and suddenly you
have a new UNIX command for translating Squid log files into human
readable timestamps. Similar thing can be done in the Windows
environment as well but the details will be slightly different.. (unless
you run Cygwin in which case the UNIX rules applies.. thank god)
