WE have done the closed port solution to try to block (https) Facebook. One
of the kids let it slip out to a teacher that you could use https and
Firefox. The closed port solution works when using Safari and Internet
Explorer, but not Firefox. Haven't had time to explore more.

Subject: Are you using MECguard SSL?

I'm interested in feedback from schools that have deployed, or
attempted to deploy, MECguard SSL (the proxy-based HTTPS filter).

Anyone using it successfully yet?  If so, how is it working out?

If you've tried to deploy it but ran into a roadblock, I want to hear
about that as well.
