I wish I could do that but a big chunk of our users need to research stuff
for their clients so they have to visit many many different websites.

Thoughts? Oh, yes...
How about default deny, and add in only web sites that are approved?
Make the approval process fairly easy, but documentable - get the
managers involved in the approval process.
That will cut down on most of your problems, right there.

I know this has been discussed in the past but I'm in the process of
making
changes to ours so I was interested in a little input from my peers. We
have
always had a policy of not allowing our desktops, email and Internet
connection to be used for personal use at all. That being said we have
always turned a blind eye to occasional personal use through the day. This
has been a problem for us. Now we are looking to change the policy to
reflect that we do allow this type of use.
We want the staff to know that's its ok but we also want them to know
what's
not ok. I was looking to basically say the following. "Some personal
Internet use is allowed but must not interfere with the performance of
work
duties and responsibilities. Personal Internet use must be restricted to
reasonable sites and materials such as news or information that might be
considered reasonable if read as a text publication in an office
environment." I’m also going to add that downloading files is not allowed
unless approved by IT and that this includes email attachments from
personal
email as well. Any thoughts?
