need to log all web sites viewed

[CRAIG2432]

a customer of mine is having a big problem with staff spending large amounts of time surfing the web for none work related activaties. I have been asked to provide a log of all web sites visited and for how long, on a user by user log.
Can anyone recoment any software, some thing that may have trial period maybe. the user runs SBS2003 standard and has 6 users

I am able to do this on our system, but we are using a Unix based server that is used as a proxy server. The software used is called Netmanager. It is very powerful software that allows me to log any site visited, block access to certain sites & a hell of a lot more besides.
This may not be of interest to your client, but you could have a look at the companies website out of interest:

I don't know your location, but this company is UK based.
Hope this is of some interest.

Another Linux thing is Squid. I've heard that it is very good

Any proxy software should allow you to view who viewed what.

Netmanager is using squid, but gives you a nice web based interface to configure it.
