For trusted stations you can make use of the ident service to tell Squid
which user originated the connection.

Otherwise you need to use authentication, where the user logs in to use
the proxy, often asked separately from their system login.

The above two acls is equivalent and matches any authenticated user.

I suspect you meant

acl andrew proxy_auth andrew
acl emma proxy_auth emma

REQUIRED means any user, so it matches no matter what login+password you
use in the browser.

Not outside the browser.

No.
