          Hi Ben. You might want to check into a firewall that can have
rules for outbound as well as inbound traffic. Some also have content
filtering that can block access by url, etc.. Otherwise you would need to
enter tcp/ip addresses of sites you want to block. If possible consider
using a block all default rule for internet access and then add the
addresses of approved sites. A signed internet use policy with enforced
consequences and notification of traffic monitoring should also be part of
the plan. Exposure to objectionable content, even on a co workers computer,
can lead to sexual harassment charges. Good luck. --- Steve
