Perfect case for a squid box. Just make the default gateway on the
squid box point to the router for the T1. Then you just have to
configure the proxy settings on the clients to use the squid box, and
you can then deny all outbound port 80 for the Metro-E link.

That is, assuming that your network is set up to take advantage of
that. I have a subnet between my core switch and my firewalls that is
relatively unpopulated, except for my squid box and my mail gateway,
so I can do just that sort of thing.
