Yes. There are two types of action Squid deny_info performs...

1) setting a reply payload/body for 2xx, 4xx, 5xx status codes.

2) redirecting to an alternative URL for 3xx status codes.

What you have configured is to set the status code to 404, then to
redirect to http://example.com/.

redirection does not work with 404, therefore Squid uses the default 302
status code to do the actual redirect. The client will then fetch the
new URL using GET.

The example I gave you was loading a static 404 error page template from
disk and sending it as the body/payload of that 404 response.

Also, I mentioned that Squid-3.2 was required to do the (1) payload
replacement. You are still using Squid-3.1.
