Well, I'm not expert in configuring squid  (caching, proxy server) but 
there is an option called "redirect_program path/to/redirector";
with some programming skills you can fetch target of url and scan in 
with (for example) clamav - if it is a virus the redirect program will
return url to deny/warning message html page otherwise it returns null 
string and url wont be changed.
Ofcourse it's only an idea ;-).
