 I looked at dansguardian too but squidguard won my vote at the time
 (about 5 years ago). I don't know about any others.

 and there's what looks like an OK front end for it too (squidguard
 manager) or a webmin module but I've never used them in anger.

 Hello All,

 I need a suggestion as i am new to squid-world and i don't wanna waist
 my time on RD rather for the perfect solution which is scalable and
 reliable. so as every Squid administrator want to restrict the
 unwanted website access during working hours so i am here to ask the
 same thing however i know how to implement squid and how to use
 squid.conf and how to block the destination and i also know that there
 are websites that are providing databases for squid to use as block
 list and also consistently updating the databases. so i want such a
 tool or supporting tool which can at least update the data files on
 weekly bases however i will manage the implementation of rules on my
 own. so kindly suggest me.

 Thank you.

I recommend you c-icap with dansguardian list. Better, faster.

ufdbGuard is a free URL filter for Squid which has the
time-related ACL feature to block sites only during business hours.
The Reference Manual of ufdbGuard explains the technical details.

If you have a small set of sites that you want to block, you
can make your own URL table and use ufdbGuard for free.

If you want to use a commercial URL database, you can
go to www.urlfilterdb.com
