Ok. There is several reasonable alternatives for doing this, depending
on how tightly integrated you want to be.

a) Go the Squid-3 path and implement the filtering using the client
streams API provided there.

b) Hook into Squid via ICAP. A bit more heavyweight, but also has the
benefit of being proxy vendor agnostic and easier to scale if the
filtering process as such is rather heavy or hard to fit into the
non-blocking scheme of Squid.

c) The old and somewhat unmaintained filter patches for Squid-2.x.
