Redirect local requests to custom error page

Hi,
We're trying to make people use our autoconfigure .pac's for their
browsers.
These contain the directive that browsers bypass the squid cache for the

local .ic.ac.uk - domain. If however someone does ask squid for a page
in the .ic.ac.uk domain we want them to get some html page reminding
people to use the autoconfiguration. The question is: how do we go about

doing this
One idea I had was to set up a tiny second cache which is forced as
parent for .ic.ac.uk - this second cache would then deny all access and
we would replace the normal error-html with our own message.
There must be a better way to do this?

Cheers,
