Ok. First question: Have you understood WHY redirecting SSL to Squid
does not work? Squid is a HTTP proxy, SSL is a completely different
protocol.

If you absolutely want to do this, then you need to write a "transparent
SSL proxy" function which accepts the SSL connections (as a tunnel,
without any SSL handshakes) and converts it to a HTTP CONNECT request
suitable for HTTP proxies.
