Practically, this is nearly impossible. Just think: How many porn
websites are out there? It would be practically impossible to drop
packets of every such porn websites even if you wrote an automated
script to do so. Many filtering systems implement web proxy system
with a generic list of banned websites and also make use of keyword
based system. But again, even if the filtering systems implemented
multiple level of blocking, people have found the ways to break
through such blockings(as in case of cleanfeed). I've heard McAfee Web
Gateaway and Barracuda Web Security Flex are good products. All I have
to say is using iptables to block porn websites would not be
effective. This site lists some content filtering softwares but not
all. http://www.timberlinetechnologies.com/products/contentfilt.html

And remember security practice is merely a process of decreasing the
probability of unwanted actions(& its effect) to the system.
