Actually you can get Squid for Windows -
http://www.squid-cache.org/Download/binaries.dyn.
I still think Squid with squidGuard (http://www.squidguard.org/index.html)
with Shalla's Blacklists (http://squidguard.shalla.de/shallalist.html)
running on any Linux server would be the best choice. Download Ubuntu server
and install on any old PC, or a very cheap new box, and make this the proxy
server. You can then access this box using a web browser if you add Webmin
(http://www.webmin.com/) and SARG - Squid Anaysis Report Generator (part of
*nix distros) is available though the Webmin interface.
The whole package would not cost more than $200 if you bought the PC,
otherwise it is all free!
