I have installed Squid 2.5 and applied necessary restrictions, one of them being restricting download size for a file (HTTP download). Now I want that only 1 computer from my network can download big files and restriction for downloads continue on remaining network.

create an acl with that 1 computer's ip address and put an http_access line for this acl before all other http_access lines so that it is parsed first, and the download-limiting will not be applied to the particular machine. For example:

acl MYCOMPUTER src 192.168.1.1
http_access allow MYCOMPUTER
and put the rest of the restrictions here....

hope this helps.
