i just learn that "intercept" is a new name of "transparent" however i
can not use transparent since i want to block https domains in working
hours which is not possible in transparent. since squid is working
only on http traffic. correct me if i am wrong since i am new?

yes i am using linux. do you mean that i should redirect 3128 traffice
to port 80 via iptables and squid will be listening on port 80. is
this what you mean?
