I had Dan's Guardian installed on an IPcop box for one of our programs that had 'at risk' high school kids using some of our computers. I found it to be very effective. They found it to be quite frustrating.

It seemed to work well. They were constantly asking me to whitelist sites for them. Ken Cornetet 812.482.8499 To err is human - to moo, bovine. From: John Cook [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2011 10:02 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Tell me about your experience with free filtering proxies I've been asked to research the possibilities for setting up a filtering mechanism for a public resource center. These will be open access computers, probably 8 - 10, for kids to get on for school work or whatever. My concern is someone doing or viewing something illegal or totally inappropriate, it's a CYA measure for the nonprofit I work for. Any thoughts on specific applications (I was looking at Squid and Foxy) or a different approach are most welcome.
