If you can still make it a transparent proxy.

MS boxes suck at handling proxies.

Automatic proxy discovery is complex and open to abuse.

GPO's won't help sensible operating systems ;)

I think some of the details of Squid config file changed at either 2.6,
or 2.7, I know as it changed for a Debian upgrade, but that was for
reverse proxies.

However I don't think the options for being a straight forward proxy
have changed, so the Squid HOWTO looks good to me. Certainly I didn't
have to touch ours on upgrades from Sarge to Lenny in any substantive
way. What are you struggling with?

I'd expect the default config for Squid 2.7 to work subject to telling
it your network ranges.
