Agreed about the content filtering -- we used it for awhile on campus.
 However,
doing any content filtering on a 1000+ user network is...a real pain,
because
our staff generated several "unblock this" requests a day.  So we stopped.

I've played with using openDNS and/or squidguard to do content
classification
from the squid log files -- in our environment it will be easier to permit
access
and then have the logging side of things start throwing up red flags &
communicating to the staff that they...well, shouldn't do things they
wouldn't
like to explain to us or their colleagues.
