I was aiming around something Squid related. Something like this:

might work depending on network.
I would also not tie this down to a single host, I would load balance it over cheaper hardware (think Google here :) )
Cheers,
Pieter

In a few words, what did you have in mind? I've looked at a few systems in the past and none of them really met my requirements for 'transparentness'.
Squid w/ TPROXY support is close to OK, but it still does expectation-breaking things like returning squid-generated failure pages in some situations.
I've definitely not come across anything with the kind of level of sophistication of say, TCL's transparent proxy which (correct me if I'm wrong) seems not to jump in unless it's pretty sure you're doing HTTP on port 80. Kudos to them for putting in a minimally invasive system.
