Good morning:
If your needs are simple (e.g. you are able to apply one filtering
policy to roughly all users at the same time and you aren't concerned
with per-user reporting on usage for accountability, etc.) you can try
OpenDNS. I just use this service for normal name resolution but they
have a filtering service as well.
http://www.opendns.com/solutions/enterprise/filtering/
Of course you can get around this filtering scheme but then no web
filtering technique is fool-proof...and blocking outbound dns requests
to all resolvers except the IP addresses of OpenDNS (there are just
two to put in your firewall) would go a long way towards preventing
users from escaping the filter.
