Oh. really sorry,
We have many questions over here about squid, I answered just after seeing the question title. Anyways You can do that easily, it can be done using .htaccess file or can also edit apache config file, but I want you to do it .htaccess way :)

better than giving instruction here.. i would like you to see this link :
