I wish you didn't.
Google thus:

The answer is in the first document on _my_ list.
Part of the answer is to have a rule that accepts connexions to your box
before you deal with those going elsewhere.
I don't suppose your DNAT rule is wrong, but it's not what is usually
recommended, and usual practice is to have squid listening on its
default port, 3128. I suspect the usual iptables rule doesn't cause the
conflict you see.
