Im looking for options to help block computers in a network from accessing porn and other such sites.

What is the best way to do this?

--

Edit:

I should clarify the situation, and tell you whats done so far..

Right, I am setting up a small network for our local community centre. We have been given a grant for some laptops and a printer.
I have got 6 laptops and a wireless printer.

Ideally, I feel that we need a basic Desktop PC to act as a master controler, however, at the moment, we only have the 6 laptops and one is a dual use as the master and user.

This I feel is stupid, however, its not my choice.

But anyway, I have given the centre one of my old wireless routers, and I have simply setup a list of words and sites that the router itself will block... This is doing a good enough job for most things, but of course, its easy to get around.

So, I was wondering what would be our best option?

Setting up a base / master PC and have all traffic going through that, and have specific software controling what the laptops can access? If so, then can I also use it to record the sites etc it goes on? What software will do this?

Thanks in advance.
