I have DansGuardian set up on my home Linux server that acts as the
router for our home network, and it does a great job of web filtering on
the fly. (I have grade school kids at home). You basically configure a
transparent proxy so all HTTP traffic is filtered, and it's configurable
as to what categories you want to allow or block. I use RPMs available
from RPMForge.
