[aklug] Content filtering for smaller sites?

We've got this business situation which comes up from time to time,
where we can sell Sat Internet to libraries out in the villages, for a
lot cheaper than they are getting it from GCI or whomever. The catch is
the Sat Internet plans we resell do not have options for content
filtering services, and the libraries are required to have content
filtering as part of some Federal funding or regulation requirement. So
our thought was to find a drop-in content filtering solution that we
could recommend or resell. There's a million options on the Internet, so
I was hoping someone the list could narrow down my search a bit by
providing some good suggestions. These are some parameters:

* It can't be terribly expensive... or we lose our price advantage over
the other telcoms.
* They need to be able to switch content filtering off and on for
particular computers, on demand... some federal requirement.
* After installation, we don't want to be point-of-contact for any of
their content filtering questions or administration... so having a large
company behind the product would be a plus.
