Internet proxy sites

I have students who have learned about internet proxy sites which allows them to bypass the astaro filter. Is there a blanket fix for these or do I just have to continuously update my blacklist when sites are found?

On your Astaro, block the Anonymizers Content Filter sub-category.

Keep in mind that there are new sites always popping up that do this, so your users may find ones that will still work if they look hard enough. Keep a close eye on the sites that they visit and submit new ones to the filtering database that Astaro uses, TrustedSource.org.
