Another product is Vicom Internet Gateway... it's been
split into two products now, one carrying the same name
includes the ability to block access to specific web sites
and has CyberNot filter capability.
A more stripped-down version is called SoftRouter. Both
products allow you to multi-home the Mac, and it then
routes Localtalk to TCP/IP and vice-versa.
Nice product; we use it on a Mac to connect our entire
office to the Internet over a measly V.90 link.
