+In web browser, goto its settings or preferences and enter a '''Proxy Server''' using host/server URL as: hda.  No username or password required. It may require setting the port number to 3128 (default Squid port), and setting the checkmark for all protocols to use the proxy.
 Now when you view a web page, it stores a cached copy on the server.  Then when you look at it again, it uses the cache instead of downloading it all again.
