Was squid installed via rpm?

rpm -q squid

will tell you. If so, then

rpm -e squid

If installed by source, then if you still have the source directory where your compiled and installed from, try

make uninstall

Are you uninstalling squid as root?

Instead of uninstalling, why not just fix the problem you are having.

I did see your other thread, but I didn't reply since I know very little about squid. I'm sure if you checked the squid log files, you could probably find out the reason squid will not start.

From what you posted in your other topic, others here will have a hard time figuring out what is wrong with so little information.

Check your log files to see what's wrong. Maybe the power failure corrupted the squid configuration file and it just needs to be reconfigured.
