Abstract :
The Internet is considered to be a powerful business tool, with its use increasing all the time. You may still find, however, negative aspects linked to its usage in various areas. Reports may be found so often in the computing press of how the Internet is being misused by employees. This paper suggests and puts forward the need for corporate Internet connections to be monitored along with the creation and evaluation of tools to aid the monitoring process. A tool is subsequently designed, implemented and evaluated
