Is this for home use or business? I'm only really experienced in business use which will be massively overkill for a few home users. i wont go into ethics here

Pfsense is very easy to setup as a webcaching proxy.

Does Squid allow this?

Yes it does. Squid would be a very good choice (if your server is running Linux)

Its just for a crappy home server to log whats happening etc... i was hoping for a simple solution.
