Proxy Server Software

[madman045]

Can anyone recommend a proxy server application?

It needs to run on Windows 2003 Server, both Standard and Enterprise.

It will handle web traffic for 100 users, its mainly to monitor internet traffic and websites and they currently have a virus spreading across their lan and it's usually associated with P2P.

Thanks

not used it on Windows myself, but Squid is pretty popular...

EDIT - if you have money to spend though you could do worse that ISA Server

Wingate should do it as well.

I'd prefer it to be able to log to a db box personally but thats just me.

I ran winproxy on an old win 95 box about 6 years ago - that seemed to do the job

Do you reckon if i installed vmware server and then a premade vm perhaps? or a linux vm with squid?

[ikonia]

no, I think thats a not a great solution.

no, I think thats a not a great solution.

why not ?
some of those precompiled VMware images can be pretty good
