Default Re: transprent proxy

I want to use a hosted Internet filtering service, Scansafe. This works as a sort of proxy "in the cloud". Normally we'd use Group Policy or similar to point the browsers to the Scansafe service, and configure the firewall to block any requests that do directly. In this case we can't do that as the facility is to be used by visitors withot us being able to get any control over their PCs or browsers. Scansafe tell us that Checkpoint firewalls can be configured to transparently catch HTTP requests and redirect them to the Scansafe proxy. (A bit like the Websense support in Cisco).
