is the file named 404.html and in the root of the document?

are you sure it just keeps loading or is it doing redirects?

If you're using IE, is the 404.html document padded to 520+ bytes so
that the smart error messages don't kick in?

telnet port 80
GET /asdf HTTP/1.0

see what it returns -- I'm guessing it probably returns a 302 rather
than a 404.  

What does the tux log say?  is it redirecting it to the backend?
