Hi - didnt know you were on LIH as well :)

Pankaj: here's a little more input (which, as several of you are sure to point
out, is evil, can be worked around easily, etc etc, but still, as you asked
...)

When you are finished with the logging, just put up a few

acl banned [regexp]

statements in squid.conf for wherever your employees seem to be goofing off the
most (say acl banned mp3, acl banned sex, etc. for starters).

You could set a cronjob to rotate squid config files (one set, without all this
blocking, for a few hours every day / after office hours ... and the other set,
with restrictive ACLs, during office hours, say)

Still, there _are_ ways to work around this (use some open web proxy or the
other, use anonymizer.com, etc etc).  This sort of blocking would only work
with total newbies (translation: people in marketing / other areas, not
programmers and such, who'd be expected to have more clues than the average
net.newbie).

Keep watching, and if you think a guy is goofing off a bit too much, yell at
him a bit / give him a friendly hint (depends on what kind of mood you are in,
and how habitual a goofer-off the guy is <g>).  That should solve things,
hopefully.

Oh by the way, there's this 'doze app called "big brother" - especially if your
clients are on 'doze machines.  Definitely worth a look.
