Looking for suggestions for an internet content filtering appliance

We offer an optional internet content filtering service to our residential and business customers using M86's appliance (http://www.m86security.com/products/web_security/m86-web-filtering-reportin g-suite.asp). I've been in conversation with them since Q1 regards IPv6 support, but the update I received today was that IPv6 support won't be available until middle to late next year. That's not ideal, because the local college is a significant user and they started with IPv6 this summer. College students can easily bypass content filtering by using the IPv6 version of the site (i.e. http://www.playboy.com.sixxs.org) Wondering if anyone can point me to a similar appliance. I know that Barracuda has such an appliance but it has one limitation I don't like, and that Fortinet and Ironport have more expensive products. It must be able to operate in pass-by/SPAN mode, not inline, and handle traffic rates up to 1 Gbps. We currently move 400+ Mbps "by" it and internet usage only goes up. Thanks in advance for any suggestions you have. Kind regards, Frank
