Oh for those who aren;t lucky enough to work for themselves it's not just websites that get tracked

IMSpector - Instant Messenger Transparent Proxy Service - IMSpector

As long as they work is done well, and it's nothing illegal.. Why can't people be allowed to browse the net ??? (If it makes them happy then they should work better IMO)

I believe it comes from the standpoint that Web access is a privelage not a right. Saying that most small to medium size businesses may only have a small internet connection and with AV updates, OS updates, Email and other Business critical apps using it surfing the web can have a large overhead.

I'm looking at switching off web access for all those who don't need it to do their job, BUT, setting aside an area of the business as a internet cafe so on breaks and lunchtime they have unmonitored use of a dedicated connection which doesn't affect business critical internet use.

I've done this before at other SME companies I've worked for and it goes down very well with staff as they can also get away from their desks to eat and switch off for a while.

Ghosty what a great Idea mate

Where I work already does this, all staff who dont need internet access dont have it, there are internet pc's in all the cafe's and restaurants that are not on the main network so you can access hotmail and facebook and all that guff. It is handy as the internet access at your pc is restricted but the ones in the cafe are not - thats how I check my hotmail.
