At this point I have added the iptables command :
  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j
REDIRECT --to-port 3128
  iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE

but it does nothing to far.

In my squid.conf I haven't adjusted many things. You can look at it here,
should there be any more problems.

I did however have to enable ip4_forward since that was off.
I'm not that familiar with my debian distro so stuff like that is helpful

at this point squid behaves as follows:
the browser without proxy settings does not find squid and doesn't give a
web page.
if I point the browser towards the proxy server then any address I open
loads VERY VERY slowly and times out after a few mins.

squid is recieving request if I point the browser to the proxy server,
otherwise nothing.
