Some good readings on Squid access controls:

http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-10.html

http://squid-docs.sourceforge.net/latest/html/c1389.html

The trick to do what you ask is to first allow the user access to what he
should have access to, then deny him access to anything else. Both "user"
and "have access to" needs to be defined (separately) as acls.
