If you're already blocking some sites, block the proxy browsing sites too.

You should also have non-technical measures in place, such as an AUP. That is, assuming you're in an environment where you can actually enforce an AUP, because if you can't, then it's pointless. If, however, users are aware that bypassing the network restrictions can affect their employment, they might be a lot less likely to do this sort of thing. Even if they do continue doing it, you'll at least have measures you can take beyond Squid ACLs.
