No need, and it will probably be just up to 50% success rate. That is not good enough either... There is a third approach: 3) FORCED user "education" Not in the sense of "don't do this or that", but more like this: If you hit the blacklist more that x times in y minutes, you will be completely blocked for z minutes. We are working on a solution here, and tried a alpha-version some time ago. It was a success, the users learned extremely quickly :-) So, if anyone is interested, we can put out our work (it's just a few scripts mixed with some ipchains-rules) on a public server when it's stable enough for release. Unfortunatly we do not have the right programming skills to implement this solution directly into squidguard itself, but it would be nice (it shouldn't be to hard, just let squidguard read ip's, users, time and so on from a db (dynamic), and not from the conf-file). Anyone? Kim
