first of all, what i download squid is squid 2.7for NT and somone suggest to run as
Simply unzip in the root of C: and run c:\squid\sbin\squid -i. Rename and edit the files in c:\squid\etc and run net start squid or start squid via services.msc. Also, make sure to create c:\squid\var\cache and run squid -z to create swap directories (or you might spend a long time trying to figure out the cryptic “abnormal program termination” message like I did! :) )

but not able to run squid on winxp
(also squid port 3168 also not workin)

Plz send guide on Installing and Configuring Squid Proxy Server for WindowsXP in more simple way

also how we connect JAP to squid

plz respond on mail, i shell be thankful to your goodself
