Trend Micro, Their Interscan Gateway box is GREAT, not cheap, but great.
Else, they have a IWSS (Interscan Web Security Suite).  This is a proxy
server, but you can configure it to be transparent.  If they are part of a
domain, its easy enough to configure, and it will track the usage across
usernames not IPs. 

PLUS, you get anti-virus, Spy ware protection right on the gateway!  Works
wonders at several clients I have put it in at.  Went from 3-4 spy ware
calls of (I need a new computer cause mine is so slow) to none!

What problem are they trying to solve, where they think this is what they
want?

This would take a LOT of disk space and a pretty hefty database,
especially if they want to retain this information for weeks or months.
They'll also need a fairly clever person around to sort things out,
separating the wheat of a given Web request from the chaff of random ICMP
traffic and other background noise (or even more computing horsepower to
try to precompute the associations between, say, "DNS lookup" and "Web
request").

I can't think of any off-the-shelf product that fills this niche right
off. If they really need this and nothing else will do, feel free to write
it. The scary part is that some people will blissfully ignore the privacy
implications and buy one, possibly making you rich in the process :D
