Anyone have a good recommendation for a Web Proxy Server that will filter Web Content? Maybe a Linux Distro.
I was looking at Smoothwall and it has the Web Proxy feature but only performs caching of websites. I also found that you can get Squid installed in Smoothwall for the filtering but that looks like more than I want to get involved with. I am really wanting the filtering ability more so than the caching ability and also a simple to use GUI to setup the filtering. Preferably an OSS linux distro.

Hi
I have just the answer Censornet, we have just started using it in our school sits on a linux/unix box and filters all unsavoury websites, its free for Educational institutes, but you have to pay the black and white list which is £100
Let me know if ya go for it
