[K12OSN] Firefox question

[John P. Conlon]

Our district does the blocking at their level in the network.  
Occasionally a student goes looking for the things that haven't been 
blocked yet and the ones where the jerks have found a new way around the 
filters.  When they find them the students get a visit to the assistant 
principal and enjoy several days of in-school punishment suspension.  
The with last occurrence we had a father threaten to sue the school and 
various teachers etc. which is why we are looking for things that a tech 
illiterate judge would understand.  Being able to print out a hard copy 
of that individuals network user history is among the most desirable 
things to be able to do.
Thanks
Pat
