I assure you, I am not trying to create more problems, and I am just like you guys when it comes to hatred of spy ware. I've been making a pretty decent living for years securing people's computers.
What you want is a IDS/firewall/DSL/Cablemodem gateway/router that packet sniffs for 'bad stuff' on the wire. They plug their computer into the gateway and it connects to the net through it.
That won't stop encrypted traffic, but most anything else should be managable. There are probably off-the-shelf systems exactly like that already available ("Corporate firewall applicances").
