Blocking users access to websites ( not with content advisor)

[JSutor]

Alright my question is this folks. I am trying to block a group of computers from accessing any websites besides that of the companies and the web based training site. I don't want to use content advisor because anytime that one of the websites is updated and a page is added needless time would be spent allowing allow the new domains.

I am wondering if any one has had an success with any third party packages and what they were?? We are also looking at kiosk software so the PC's boot up and open IE immediately to one of the two sites and blocking the user from accessing anything but the to websites. No start menu, my computer, or tool bars.

thanks

Hi All,

bcastners fix worked great, except I can't figure out how to give my users access to hotmail. I tried putting in *.hotmail.com, *.login.passport.net and *.passport.net in "exceptions" but nothing works for me. Any idea as to what I need to add to "exceptions" so a user can get their hotmail? Thanks, DON
