No, I would stick with #1 the web proxy squid. Should be pretty easy to set up. Make it a DNS server, too, so it has a local cache of IPs.

Is there some documentation somewhere? I am new to linux had to do some things in unix years.....ago. so i have some knowledge but somethings i am not sure or remember how to do.

For just a caching server, you skip most of the steps. You resolv.conf (client config) points to the local host and the DNS can have the ISP name servers as root name servers. When it wants to know what is not cached, it asks them, and they tell it either the answer, there is no answer or where to go. Quick HOWTO : Ch18 : Configuring DNS - Linux Home Networking
