Can't surf the web thru Squid

Hi,

After install Squid stable from the ports, and configured PF packet
filter firewall and squid.conf file, I can't surf the web. It returns
error "The rquested URL could not be retrieved" from Squid.

Here is the setup of PF:
# pfctl -sn
nat on tun0 inet from 192.168.4.0/24 to any -> (tun0) round-robin
rdr on fxp0 inet proto tcp from any to any port = http -> 127.0.0.1 port
8080

in squid.conf, I added the following lines:
http_port 8080
httpd_accel_host virtual
httpd_accel_port 80
httpd_accel_with_proxy on
httpd_accel_uses_host_header on

The problem is I don't know how to tell squid to go and fetch the URL
from the internet if the URL is not found in the cache.

Can anybody please tell me how to configure this in squid?

Thanks
Sam
