If you have sshd running on your home box, you can set up a dynamic proxy
using ssh in 30 seconds or less.  Client machine runs a SOCKS proxy over
SSH, connects to box at home.  Web browser on client is configured to use a
SOCKS proxy of localhost:<port>.    That will tunnel all web traffic through
your SSH connection and out over your box at home.  Works great.

Much easier and lightweight than squid imo.  The one caveat is that intranet
sites are inaccessible unless you take the time to set up local bypass rules
in your web browser of choice.
