restrict a web site through group policy

[inbflat]

Hi, I'm a noob at server 2003. Am taking care of all computers at a small charter high school. Is there a way through group policy to restrict a website? Unfortunately, my router doesn't support filtering or I'd do it through there.
I don't know enough about forward lookup zones and such, but is that one way?
Or is there a way to push a modified hosts file out to the domain through group policy? A login script perhaps?

thanks

No, you can't do it with GPO unfortunately.

You will need to use a proxy for it.
Take a look at this article:

The proxy is very inexpensive and well rated in the review.
The product is here:

and is only $69 for unlimmitted use.

I hope you find this post helpful.
