I don't know what your exact problem is but it's typically no
problem to start or stop any service for which you have sufficient
access rights.

I don't no how you installed squid, but please be aware of my hint
I wrote into my announcement: The application must not fork and
exit! If squid has a switch to avoid forking a daemon, like the
`-D' switch for sshd, use it when installing the service.
