New Netsweeperer Filtering in Wirral

[User3204]

So, is anyone else using the new netsweeper filtering that Wirral have made available recently ?

 

Cause, if not the RM one gets switched off on Friday. So far, we have found it slow, which isn't good considering the RM one was pants too.

 

It does have some decent reporing though, I can get daily/weekly/monthly reports emailed to me... oh, look the top 10 websites are:

update.microsoft.com

microsoftupdates.com

Google

cps.qcaaps.co.uk

 

... really, well that's useful...

Heh.

 

Still, it gets better, yesterdays daily usage allowed (formatting whacked a bit):

Yeah, still great.. (the IP address is our internal proxy server).

 

And the denied list:

Which begs the question, why is http://www.google.co.uk allowed, yet http://www.google.co.uk is blocked....
