[Web4lib] Internet Content filters

[Thomas Edelblute]

I really like BTWebFilter from Burstek.  It integrates with Active
Directory, and we can put different computers into different groups for
different profiles to apply.  Ideal if you want to have one profile for
children's computers, one profile for adult computers, and a different
profile for machines dedicated to a group of subscription databases.

We have been using Symantec Web Security (formerly Igear) as our
internet filter but just learned that the product was discontinued.  We
are looking into a product called Smart Filter because it integrates
with SAM, our computer reservation software.

Are any of you familiar with Smart Filter?  Would you recommend it?  If
not, what types of problems have you experienced?  Thanks in advance for
your input. --janice
