WebScout is a powerful, yet simple to configure, HTTP and SOCKS 5 proxy
which can share, monitor and filter Internet access for a variety of web
browsers and Internet applications.
Access Rules
The intuitive user interface makes it simple to create access rules controlling
what activity is allowed and which should be blocked. You can simply deny access
to a blocked site or provide your own custom error message informing the user
about your Acceptable Usage Policy.
Rules can be created to allow or block access based on the workstation,
username, time of access, domain name, directory or filename. For example, you
can block access to yahoo.com/games, all EXE files, or permit access during
lunch hours only.
Quota Management
Besides blocking access, you can also speed throttle certain requests to a
slower speed so that they do not congest your network. For example, you can
speed throttle MP3, EXE and ZIP file downloads to a maximum of 10 KB/s per user.
WebScout includes a usage counter which records how much bandwidth and time each
user or workstations has spent on the Internet on a daily, weekly and monthly
basis. Usage limits can be applied to users so that when a user exceeds their
quota, their Internet access is restricted.
Security
The new SOCKS 5 proxy makes it possible to monitor and restrict usage in a wider
range of Internet programs, such as FTP, e-mail, P2P file-sharing programs, IRC
and IM chat programs. Advertisements and adult content can be filtered using the
built-in filters. All Internet activity can be logged into a text file, or you
can choose to log only blocked requests or disable the log altogether.
The latest version also adds Active Directory and NT domain authentication, so
users can use their existing Windows logon password to also access to the
Internet. The programs settings can be password-protected so that no other users
can make unauthorized changes. WebScout runs invisibly in the background as a
Windows service.
