Curious line in apache log

My apache2 access.log has the below line in it.

My guess is that my dynamic IP used to be used for
ukfinanceinfo.co.uk and that there is an out-of-date DNS server
somewhere on the internet that is pointing requests for that url
at ukfinanceinfo.co.uk towards my apache server.

A fair assumption?

Your assumption is wrong, this is someone trying to use your server as an
http proxy to access a page on www.ukfinanceinfo.co.uk and failing.

If it was an out of date DNS thing then the log entry would be
"GET /prx1.php?..."
