title: Encrypt traffic between squid and clients
body: <p>I got a squid 2.8 running on an ubuntu 10.04LTS server. 
  I've build it with "ssl support", but I am not sure what that means. 
  The problem is that I am using the proxy to access a torrent site, however when I try to download the .torrent file it does not work, because my ISP is running some kind of shaper, which does not allow me download it. 
  The problem however disappears if I do a </p>
  
  <pre><code>ssh -D localhost:port remote_server
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And set the Mozilla proxy to localhost. </p>
  
  <p>if there a way to achieve this with squid. </p>
