So you want to block logging for exec surfing?  Your 2nd and 3rd sentences
state opposites...

Using anonymizer or something similar yes you can scramble.  You can also
just hit anonymous surfing sites which will do the same.  But frankly it's
not a smart thing to do.  Why aren't the execs surfing monitored and logged
like everyone else?  They are just as likely to violate corp policy and do
other things (like look at porn).  Why aren't they held to the same standard
that they require of their employees?

couldn't find any matter on this one on the security focus website...

I am looking for an application to block net utilization at the desktop
level.

My boss wants to keep a select group's (mostly senior managers) internet use
confidential. She wants this to be done locally (desktop application), so no
logs are generated on the network admin end. 

Is this doable?

Thanks for all the responses...

Imran
