What you have is in no way transparent. As long as DNAT was used never has
been.

Transparent interception is done with REDIRECT (netfilter) or TPROXY-2
when squid sits on the NAT box with the full NAT tables available to it.

Using DNAT to another box isolates squid from the information it needs to
work transparently, but it can still be faked with an semi-open proxy
config.

You need the following for starters:

  # cope with standard web requests ...
  http_port 80 vhost
  # SECURE the access!!!!
  acl localnet src 10.0.0.0/8
  http_access deny !localnet

** alter the ACL to contain the IP ranges you are intercepting.

NP: broken non-HTTP-compliant client software will still get that error
page, but compliant software like most browsers will get through okay.
