how to code HTTP URL blacklisting driver for both XP and Vista/7?
I need it for special software for schools
any ideas about HTTPS or VPN? I was thinking about firefox, IE,… extension. Not bulletproof, but better than nothing. It’s just school.
Thanks
Winsock supports a Service Provider Interface, which is probably where you’ll want to install your “driver”. You’ll (probably) want/need to install your provider as a “filter” that depends on the existing providers, but all traffic is forced to go though your provider between winsock itself, and the existing providers.
Unless you’re going to deploy this on a large number of campuses or something on that order, it’ll almost certainly be substantially cheaper to do the filtering in the router(s) instead.
