I did this for a customer back in 1996 or 1997, before transparent devices
were around.  The users dialed in, and their tacacs/radius profile
restricted them to an ACL which blocked traffic should they accidentally
have removed their browser proxy config.  A Squid proxy was set up with a
URL filter list, which was snarfed periodically (I think I automated this
somehow) from a list the customer maintained.

During black-out times, a time-based rule blocked everything.

Worked great, though faded away from lack of interest.  I haven't seen
similar requests come up since.

regards,

  Steve
