#This is the most important part of shaping incomig traffic with Squid

#We don't want to limit downloads on our local network.
acl magic_words1 url_regex -i 192.168

#We want to limit download of these type of file
#put this all in one line

acl magic_words2 url_regex -i ftp .exe .mp3 .vqf .tar .gz .gz .rpm .zip .rar .avi .mpeg .mpe .mpg .qt
.ram .rm .iso .raw .wav .mov

#We don't work .html, .gif .jpg and similar files, bec'z they genarllky don't consume much bandwidth

etc, etc, etc. and so on....

There is no specific place to put the rule. If you enter it immediatly following the instructions in the file that will suffice. Maybe I don't understand your question though.
