I wonder how you react to emails from your users which contain so little

Was it previously able to surf the Internet?

If yes, when did this change?

Did anything else happen on your network at the same time as this change?

Please show us the full text of the message.

Which browser are you using?

Which server?

Is any reason given?  Any more detail at all?

This is a Windows domain?  Not just a simple "bunch of PCs on a network doing 
their own thing"?  Do you need to authenticate to the domain (on *any* PC, I 
don't just mean on the one giving the problems) in order to be able to access 
websites?

Was the PC with the problem reinstalled or reconfigured shortly before it 
stopped being able to access websites?

I'm wondering what makes you think a reinstall might resolve the problem - you 
might be right, but is there any information which leads you to believe this?

Do you have any other Windows XP machines on your network?

If so, are any of those able to access websites?

Please tell us where Squid fits into your question.
