| If I want to allow a user to only go to a few-several websites and block everything else, what is the best way to do so? Adm Templates or IE Maintenance?
Thanks!

| Shane,
We did this by setting a non-existent proxy server and then creating an exception list for named sites. All of this can be done with Group Policy. I'm not sure if this is the best way but it was certainly simple to set up and worked fine for us.
Thanks,

| How can I unsubscribe? I no longer work at the email used and they would like me to remove from the list since my emails are being forwarded to another individual in that company.
Thanks!

A proxy is definitely your best bet. There is support in IE Maintenance policy for creating allow and deny website lists, in conjunction with the content ratings feature. I've used that before and it works, but of course, is only relevant to IE (doesn't support other browsers).

| Neither. This is the best way that I have found. Use IPsec rules. It's VERY simple and can be completed in ten minutes. There's a great walk-through here....

You can use the top walk-through and just set the policy to allow only the websites you want allowed. I use this technique for some kiosk machines we have.
Good luck and feel free to reply if you have any follow up questions.

| I'm going to agree with Michael... IPSEC filters, that sounds like an interesting approach. We had tried the other (proxy), but found that it only works for sites "inside" the intranet of a company (though it works fine if outside). Once you break the proxy...you can only get to Intranet locations and that had not been our goal (limit device 'on the intranet' to just a few locations 'outside on the internet'). We had been looking at developing some custom BHO (Browser Helper Objects) to perform the actions when the requirement went away.
I'm definitely going to investigate the links Michael noted...sounds VERY interesting.

| I like the solution as well. I think Michael brought it up awhile back but I haven't had a chance or need to really look at it. Agree that is sounds very interesting.
You can also use a PAC file. Little bit more of a pain to setup and manage, but you get a lot of flexibility that way.
