 I've found that "normal" 404's work for my website. For example:

 http://example.com/alskdfjk

 will correctly generate a 404, but any index.php queries for nonexistent
 stuff won't. Like:

 http://example.com/index.php?alskdjfksjf

 just returns the front page (recent posts). Even:

 http://example.com/index.php?error=404

 does not generate a 404. Again, it just returns the front page. I've tried
 disabling all plugins and also switching back to the default theme, but
 that didn't fix it.
