      Under Destinations tab hit the + key and name Blacklist.
      Under domain fields add the site you want to Blacklist…......example youporn.com...do not add the http://www.

      urls list..just what it says.

      Redirect field...add error code or redirect to another website.

      Read the previous links as stated above to the quick guides.

          You have configured clients to use the proxy?

            i didnt configure proxy in clients side.  Do we need to configure it in to proxy server, the ip address and port of the pfsense?  Am I correct?

              Yes.  The port if you haven't changed it is 3128.

              Don't forget to create a firewall rule to block 80/TCP outbound to force people to use the proxy.

                  What gave you that impression?  Nobody mentioned bridging in this thread.

                  No - don't bridge unless you know what you're doing.

                      I'm done setting up client workstation proxy in internet browsers. In setting up proxy, it should be the LAN ip address of the pfsense and port is 3128?  Am i right?

                      Still it won't work.  :(

                      Did i miss some steps?

                      Thanks…

                        A good starting point would be what you mean when you say "it won't work".  Are you still able to access the sites you're trying to block, are you failing to reach the Internet at all, what?  We don't have a crystal ball or mind reading abilities.
