Squid2.x on freebsd failes: commBind: Cannot bind socket

Hi, I have been trying to get squid 2.2 running on a FreeBSD 3.3 machine.

Whenever I try to connect to the proxy I get the following message and squid
seems to restart (lots of disk noises). I have tried 2.2 and 2.1 with the same
result. The permissions for dnsserver are ok and the port is not in use (I have
checked with netstat and have tried different ports).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
