Ok, I'll try to explain the scenario again and more detailed (I remark
that I'm using this guide which states that it should work for public IP
addresses: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/AtSource):

Client side: Has public IP address A.B.C.D
Server side: Has public IP address E.F.G.H

On the client side, I added the following iptables rule:

     iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT
--to-destination E.F.G.H:3128

On the server side, I just opened up the port 3128, this is the only one
rule:

     iptables -I INPUT -s eth0 --dport 3128 -j ACCEPT

On the server side, there's a squid3 running with the default package
configuration, just two lines changing (though the 3127 port has nothing
to do with this example):

     http_port 3128 intercept
     http_port 0.0.0.0:3127

So, when I do a HTTP connection attempt on the client side, it is indeed
successfully redirected to E.F.G.H but the loop occours with these two
events in the log:

cache.log:

I also tried using a VPN connection between both the client and the
server, the result is exactly the same (just the public IPs change by
the VPN's private, obviously).

I hope I explained it better now, hope someone can help because this is
really driving me nuts :-(

Thanks.
