Re: web content filtering in the SMB
David, do you think the antivirus aspect of it is a real benefit? Like you know it helps stop baddies? This client uses Trend and it has been less than effective at stopping some trojans lately. Wiping and starting over with a machine with serveral LOB apps and 4 or 5 versions of quickbooks installed is not something I or the client like doing. Thanks.

RE: web content filtering in the SMB
We're using OpenDNS - the free edition blocks the content quite well,
and the other editions have some nice features. If you want reports of
who/which computer is trying to access inappropriate content, you'll
need to look elsewhere though.

Re: web content filtering in the SMB
What model SonicWall do you have? You will also get malware protection on the SonicWall if you purchase a bundle that has content filtering and gateway AV protection. Have you had a look at www.firewalls.com ( http://www.firewalls.com/sonicwall/sonicwall-firewall/sonicwall-nsa-series/sonicwall-nsa-240) An NSA 240 bundle with all the UTM/CFS/IPS addons included only runs $1,391 for a year, and subscription renewals look to start at $582 for 1 year. We have a couple of these in a failover pair and they work fine. The CFS stuff isn't very granular, and the concept of allowing users to manually override filtering for a short period of time isn't something that SonicWall seems to have considered, but we worked around the limitations successfully.
