    In addition to a Squid server that others have suggested - you might
    also want to consider adding a Socks server to the equation.

    If you configure the firewall to only allow traffic that comes from
    either the squid or socks servers and then configure these servers to
    allow or deny traffic as it fits your security policy I believe your
    issue will be addressed.

    You can find information about Squid at http://www.squid-cache.org/
    and information about Socks at http://www.socks.permeo.com/.

    Hope this helps.
