If you *are* going to go the kill route, the easier way to automate it
would be:
ps -ax | grep squid | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs kill -9

For those (such as below, I assume) who aren't familiar with these
commands, a quick explanation:
awk '{ print $1 }' will display the first field of information from the
results of the previous command.
xargs tells it to feel the previous results into the next command.

Very handy, but when you're not sure what you're doing, PLEASE do it
carefully.

I *ALWAYS* first test by doing the string without the kill, to be sure I'm
getting the correct info, then rerun it with the kill command.

Cheers.
