Monitor XP (ICS ) client connections?

  A friend who runs a small business (across the continent from
me, currently) is using XP with connection sharing, and has
expressed concern that some of his employees may be endangering
the network by visiting URLs they shouldn't.  He'd like to be 
able to do some basic monitoring of the ICS connection, without
getting into full-blown sniffing and packet disassembly.

  Can anyone recommend (or, based on experience, recommend against!)
tools for this job?  It doesn't have to be in real time, it's okay
if it sits in the background collecting info and he just checks it
every now and then.
