I wouldn’t waste my time with anything running on Windows.

Set up IPCop on a spare PC with 2 NICs in it. Then add the Addons server component . Finally add either SquidGuard or Cop+ from the Addons site. Either product will give you a very high level of control over Internet access. Squid functions as a transparent proxy by default so you don’t need to do anything on the client machines on your network to get it working.

As a bonus, IPCop also provides a fully functional and secure VPN capability for site-to-site VPNs and can be configured as a VPN endpoint with nearly every commercial VPN product on the market. I’ve set up VPN tunnels to Cisco PIX firewalls and Cisco VPN concentrators many times with great success.

Look for “FreeProxy” for windows. I’m not sure if that will run ok on a server, but the user reviews look ok. I’ve never tried it, cause I have an external Linux-based router with it’s own proxy built in. An external proxy will work for any network users, Windows (client or server), Linux, Mac, or whatever.

At 25 nodes, I’d suggest looking for an external proxy, it will provide a lot more features and flexibility, including traffic shaping, content blocking, etc. There are a lot of free Linux firewalls with proxies. Some of the free versions also sell commercial versions with support, and some of the higher end ones even sell network “appliances” that are all-in-one boxes. However, be warned that it will take some know-how to get those running properly.

Here’s a free proxy created today:

-Unblock ANY Website
-watch youtube videos
-download up to 100 MB
-hide you IP and stay anonymous
-Fast and hosted on a dedicated server

I get new proxies here everyday:

Email me if it’s not working and i’ll email you a proxy that I haven’t advertised yet
