I still think Squid with squidGuard (http://www.squidguard.org/index.html) with Shalla's Blacklists (http://squidguard.shalla.de/shallalist.html) running on any Linux server would be the best choice. Download Ubuntu server and install on any old PC, or a very cheap new box, and make this the proxy server. You can then access this box using a web browser if you add Webmin (http://www.webmin.com/) and SARG - Squid Anaysis Report Generator (part of *nix distros) is available though the Webmin interface. The whole package would not cost more than $200 if you bought the PC, otherwise it is all free! -- Regards, Steve Bathurst Computer Solutions URL: www.bathurstcomputers.com.au e-mail: steve () bathurstcomputers com au Mobile: 0407 224 251 .... _ ...
