I've found squid rather cumbersome to setup, particularly for a one-time
use like this.
Maybe look at polipo (it is also in the debian apt repositories.)

Or maybe:
http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/BOOK/HTTP-Proxy-0.24/eg/proxy-auth.pl
(Wherein "here's an ID and password" is in the comments on line 8.)
