You are not going to be able to report that with any real accuracy. Web filters 
have reports that estimate the time spent on a website, but they are only 
estimates based upon the 'norm'.  You don't know if I spent 5 minutes on the 
front page of CNN or I spent 2 hours there. As long as I don't click it is a 
static display.

But now that you have upped the ante here, to specific people at specific times 
you are going to be looking at a full web filter that has authentication tied 
to Active Directory so you know who is on what computer and all that. We have 
an M86 Web Filter and Reporter that will do all you ask. Cisco's Ironport will 
do it, we evaluated that one also.

Seldom are there technological solutions for behavioral issues.

Subject: Internet browsing reporting?

Greetings,

I'm looking for another solution, and this list has never steered me wrong.  I 
need to be able to monitor the Internet traffic for specific people for 
specific times, and report their usage.  Basically, I need to be able to say 
person X was on the web for 15 hours last week.  If the solution also gave me 
the ability to block gambling, pr0n, etc. sites, that would be great.  I'm 
looking at Websense now, but it seems more for blocking access, not reporting 
on who did what.

Thanks!

Eric
