Oh - how embarassing! Doing the above *did* make a difference and stopped
the clients from making a new route. But a mistake in the iptables meant
the iptable with the redirect from 80 was not linked in and so was never
called. I blame my collegue who set it up the iptables on the box ;)
This was discovered by using etherreal which showed the packets were indeed
routing through the filter - just not getting redirected to squid.

Thank you to everyone who replied!
