I like  Smoothwall with Dansguardian and ClamAV.  The how do is at
http://www.smoothwall.org with the how to for Dansguardian with ClamAV at
http://community.smoothwall.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8488 I use it here at
home with my two kids and it works great.  The install is very easy with a
old PC and two network cards.  It can also be setup to monitor AIM and MSN
messenger.   The how to for this is at
