Can I get some more details? You've completely lost me with this.
btw, what ever is done has to be at a central location, can't be on each pc.
People own their own pc's.

Marlon,
That being the case, I would do something simple like the L7 Filter or
DansGuardian, quick and easy and best of all, cheap. I think a lot of
the suggestions are overkill for what you are describing.

It's a small private school/business. Think Amish but they do have
computers....

Marlon,
The two that I've encountered most in the field are the Allot
NetEnforcer and Packeteer's products. The Allot software has gotten
much better recently with detecting 'bad' traffic that gets routed
through standard ports (80/443/20/21,etc). And Packeteer has some good
content caching patents. Both of their prices are high though. Here's
a decent write-up, it's a little old:
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,901491,00.asp
Though neither of those are a true 'router' but more of a gateway that
would sit behind the router, so I don't know if that's what you are
looking for.
I could also recommend some open source projects for the DIY person. L7
Filter, DansGuardian, ntop, etc are the standouts. Also, most of the
open source firewalls also do basic string matching on urls:
*myspace.com for instance. Going down that route I would look at
m0n0wall and smoothwall, both of which I've used with success.
Are they trying to eliminate types of traffic (P2P) or are they trying
to block specific sites? Some of the cheaper products do one and not
the other. The better content filters have a subscription type system
to do remote updates periodically to the product for an updated list
with new proxies and sites they've flagged as bad (think Norton). There
are some other products out there like photo no-no (www.photonono.com)
that actually filter images on the fly. Though they were very hesitant
to send me benchmarks when I was talking to them a while back so you
probably need some horsepower to use them at scale.

Hi All,
I have a customer that's looking for a router that also does content
filtering.
What are people using these days?
Prices?
thanks,
