How to Block URLs using Cisco PIX 506E

How do I block certain outgoing URLs such as www.microsoft.com?  Are there ways to block certain keyboards that appear in URLs such as porn, xxx, etc?

thanks.

Just to add to Keith's suggestions -
There is absolutly no mechanism on the pix itself to do that. Period.
You must use some other 3rd party product like WebSense, iPrism, BlueCoat or other web filtering product.
I really like the iPrism product http://www.stbernard.com/iprism

A workaround is to use bogus DNS entries for the domain, but I suggest using an unused local IP address instead of 127.0.0.1. I've found that it just works better for some reason.
Thanks for the tip LR
Thanks :)
