Restrict Network Users Access to Websites

I'm looking for software suggestions on controlling what websites are
available to my network users. I'm running Windows 2003 Server.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thx,
Dave

Hello DaveH,

Use a proxy server like ISA server to control it.

You could get some helpful information here

To summarise:

1. Use a web proxy and configure whitelists or blacklists on it.

or

2. Configure all machines with same hosts file...Although here, the
control moves over to the client machine.

Either:

1. A firewall product such as ISA Server as Meinolf suggested

2. Use OpenDNS (www.opendns.com)
