Dear @ll,
I would like to discuss a problem with Websense.
Websense permits you to filter the internet page using a DB.
We have in our company two user profiles; Basic user and
Administrative user.

Using the Administrator profile, it is simple enough to bybass
Websense by setting a proxy address in the internet browser option.
How can we prevent the Administrator profile from being able to do
this?

Thanks a lot and best regards

Why would you want your Administrators blocked from anything?

Use websense in conjunction with a hardware firewall that uses statefull
packet inspection to enforce using the websense server for all HTPP
connections. Many firewalls will specifically support integration with
the websense server to do this.
