A museum I advice is looking at the possibility of giving the public
access to heritage related websites via a computer located in one of the
galleries. They would of course like to stop the possibility of this
being used to access inappropriate sites by using a filter.=20

Have a look at sitekiosk (www.sitekiosk.com). Its a professional program for
creating public access internet kiosks. It lets
you allow users to only visit particular
sites (eg. the heritage ones) and blocks
everything else. There's a free demo and
a "non-profit" version for 99 Euros (about £65).
Its a really powerful program with about a
million options so the only thing to watch for is
that it may take you several goes to get all the settings right.
You can use it with a touchscreen, mouse or
trackball. Devlin sell nice keyboards
and trackballs for kiosks if you want one
