I wrote a FAQ entry for you:

  10.24. I want to customize, or make my own error messages.

  You can customize the existing error messages as described
  ``Customizable Error Messages''. You can also create new error
  messages and use these in conjunction with the deny_info option.

  For example, lets say you want your users to see a special message
  when they request something that matches your pornography list.
  First, create a file named ERR_NO_PORNO in the
  /usr/local/squid/etc/errors directory. That file might contain
  something like this:

  <p>
  Our company policy is to deny requests to known porno sites. If you
  feel you've received this message in error, please contact
  the support staff (support@this.company.com, 555-1234).

  Next, set up your access controls as follows:

  acl porn url_regex "/usr/local/squid/etc/porno.txt"
  deny_info ERR_NO_PORNO porn
  http_access deny porn
  (additional http_access lines ...)
