Web (URL) filtering

[Michael Scully]

Rudy:

	If you're trying to enforce a company web browsing policy, most URL
filters are worthless.  These are best down with a subscription service.  I
know some of the router manufacturers offer them.  There are thousands of
new domains registered every week, and someone has to research and classify
them (sports, porn, gambling, entertainment, file swapping, etc.).  You
really want to block entire classes of site, not just looking for something
in the web name.

Hi, all

Is theer a package to do web contents filtering? Even a simple URL filtering
would do.

Unfortunately, I can not use "squid". The only software I have found is
called "dansguardian" and it is using squid.

Is there anything else?

Thanks
