Thanks for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The logs show that squid failed to start after being re-installed, but don't show why. Could you attach your /etc/squid/squid.conf and /var/log/squid/* files?

It also may be helpful to try:

service squid stop
service squid start

and look for error messages on the console.

I'm having all kinds of issues but I think it's due to the GTK Admin
tools I installed. All of the file permissions on my system have been
hosed ever since using this to install ProFTPd. Once I'm back on that
machine I'll forward a copy of my squid.conf to you.

We'd like to figure out what's causing this bug for you, but we haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks!

I did reply. Not sure why it didn't go through.

I believe the problem was related to the GTK Admin Tools I installed.
Going back to 10.10 fixed everything.
