Webfilter

I am serving a elementary school and they want me to put web-filter on the network connection to restrict access to porno and thelike.

I have been using proxy server who bans certain words but he is also blocking some service we need.

Our router is Windows 2003 server and I am looking for software to put on him to filter the webaccess.

What Technic does opendns use ?

You use their dns services. It requires the least effort on your side to filter websites. You sign up, configure some categories to filter, and then point your dns settings to their servers. Whenever anyone types in for example sex.com in their browser, opendns will return their own ip, meaning it will show a "this page is blocked" page. And all the while, you didn't pay for anything, and you didn't have to install software on all pc's.

OpenDNS is working perfectly.
