FTP data ports, Gopher, plenty of odd non-standard ports used for
HTTP (defenitely a few more than "some other ports"), etc...
To make a long story short, when forwarding requests for
http/ftp/gopher URL's, Squid will use the same kinds of ports as if
you were running a http/ftp/gopher client on the Squid server machine
itself.. so any ports you would need to allow a client running a
browser to access if not using a proxy you will need to allow the
Squid server to access.
