Sorry forgot to copy group on this reply.


You can try websense, it seems to be top notch as far as reporting
capabilities and also filtering web content.  You can check out
requirements, etc at www.websense.com

A member of management has asked me to research available programs to log internet usage (web surfing) on our 
corporate network.

We are running a Windows server with a mix of XP and 2K clients.

What have some of you used to provide this in a report that management can use to show that a user is spending too 
much time on the internet?

I don't have a Linux box up and running, but if the right Linux based app is suggested, I would consider going that 
route.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Please try and keep this on topic, I've seen questions like this before degrade into a privacy violation, "big 
brother" type of debate.
