A minor point:  if your intent is to limit all access to pornography,
this is not a solution that scales well on the Internet.  If your
intent is to limit access to only sites that contain work-related
items, then it doesn't scale at all.

The usual refrain here is that this is more of a management/social
issue--something that's hard to fix with technology.
