Anyone have a recommendation for an Internet filter for a 35 PC workgroup? They need to limit access to specific sites and block everything else on specific PC's.

Anyone have a recommendation?

You should also note that just about any effort you make here will be subvertable in some way or another. Just depends on how educated your users are.

They cannot add or change software without admin rights, which they don't have. Considering they have a hard time rembering password, i'm not really concerned with them changing stuff. The ones that might be able to do it are the managers and they will not be restricted. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

The Netopia is not very user friendly and is more 'black and white' i need to be able to easily modify it and give them permission to only certain sites. It is bullet proof for the VPN, which was it's original purpose.

i'm leaning towards a SonicWall. i think that will give me all the flexibilty without taking hours of ongoing configuration with "Oh, Joe by the way can you add, subtract blah blah......"
