Is it possible to 'set' the squid so it will retrieve a default homepage for the network ? e.g when a user opens the IE, it will be directed to a default homepage ?
Not easily. The "homepage" of a browser is the first URL the browser will request when started. This then gets sent to the proxy.
What you can do in the proxy is to ignore the first URL sent by your users per day and forcibly redirect them to your "default homepage", so even if the user tries to go to gmail.com he will end up on your default page on the first attempt. To do this you need a redirector helper which keeps track of users already seen, and redirects users not seen earlier.
