Have a look at http://www.squid-cache.org/related-software.html There are quite a few "redirectors" that integrate with squid and allow you to rewrite URLs. If you have a list of URLs that should be blocked, you could redirect these to a local page. You can find lists of ad sites with a search engine (the docs for the redirector will probably tell you what words to look for). I don't know if such a list exists for porn sites. AFAIK, these redirectors can't do content filtering (looking for keywords etc), which might be more useful here. Disclaimer: I've never set up such a thing with squid. I do something like it with wwwoffle, but I only block ads from a few sites that I visit daily (everything else would have been too much work for me...) Matthias
