Given that:
* you earlier said this was on Windows XP
* the use of %userprofile% variable indicates that it is running directly
on the box the user is logged into with their profile in the main registry
view.
* NAT interception ("transparent") is not available in the supported
Squid releases
* access to NAT tables on Windows requires replacing the whole networking
stack anyway
...
What do you mean by transparent then?

One question at a time please.
You can work on building more complex systems after you sort out the
fundamental question of who is and is not allowed access and how to
identify them.
