According to http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/FAQ/FAQ-12.html#ss12.17

12.17 Can I make my regular FTP clients use a Squid cache?

Nope, its not possible. Squid only accepts HTTP requests. It speaks FTP on
the server-side, but not on
the client-side.

The very cool wget will download FTP URLs via Squid (and probably any other
proxy cache).
