However, I guess i'ts better to set up a proxy than keeping logs of every piece of comunication between the Internet Café (if that's the scenario) and the Internet, because I wonder if someone is going to stay 24x7 looking at the logs or even looking at them when the café is getting close. Set up a proxy allowing only some sort of popular websites such as yahoo, google, or all of those which provide emails or news, you know... > > I have no idea as to how responsible an owner of an Internet café would be > if some of his clients were accessing seriously dodgy porn sites.

Imagine a café with 100 computers and 50 folks usin IM, is it possible to keep and eye in those IM conversation? Definetly, no, IMHO. I'm not a lawyer but I guess the Café has nothing to do with an illegal situation, such as older people talking with young ones...it's sad, but it's quite true. > Under such circumstances I can well understand the need to know what your > clients are doing on machines that on the bottom line, you are responsible > for.

They would do whatever you allow the to do in your machines, a good security privacy would let you stay more or less in calm Just my opinion, Cheers! Manuel -- Manuel Arostegui Ramirez.
