The General Service Administration uses http://www.websense.com/. I'm not fond of it because it often blocks sites techs use for admin purposes.

I am not trying to be a prick about it, but something has to be done. I have no problem with them going online to check email, and other things. I do not expect any more of my employees than I ask from myself.

Taking out the internet is not an option as I use it to connect to the corporate servers.

I have already had a talk with both of them, and nothing has changed. Actually one of them went to one of the social networks, and aired company laundry (that has been addressed).

I don’t want to have to do anything with the internet in that office. I have other things working now, and am going to take the wait and see approach. I am just trying to stay a step ahead.

Websense sucks. We use at work and it does block way too many sites.

Ray - There are many products that will do the trick, both proxy and context filtering but before implementing anything an "acceptable use policy" is a must. Otherwise you don't have a leg to stand on.
