I use a Firebox 1000 from Watchguard technologies (watchguard.com) and
am very happy with its performance. It is a hardware firewall with
built-in filtering. It is highly configurable, so you can block any
site that might not show up on the filter lists provided by the company.
I have used it for four years without a hitch. The other great thing
about the product is that it is supported by a team of excellent tech
support engineers.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Internet filtering
This is not a pro and con debate question on Internet filtering.
I woud like to know if any of you have been using any
Internet filtering solutions that you have been
satisfied with.
I am curretnly using BorderManager with Surfcontrol
and really have not been happy with it.
I am looking at Bess which would allow my media
speciaists to work on customizing content at their
school.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks
Paula
