All the clients computers are doing well with internet.Suddenly my boss has asked me that you should only permit the company’s web site e.g. http://www.xyz.com.

I think you need to do routing and remote access to do this…you cantry setting up a destination filter on the Internal NIC so that only http requests to http://www.xyz.com are allowed…

You can not do that with ICS.

I know for a fact that you can do that with the ISA server of Microsoft (whcih you have to pay for of course).

You can try the 602 pro lan suite 2003 (which is free at download.com)

This is a secure mail server with antivirus and antispam, and a built-in firewall and proxy for controlled Internet sharing. The standards-based SSL SMTP/POP3 e-mail server provides secure encrypted communication. Antispam is provided by DNSbl service and a blacklist. It includes a Web mail client with WAP support. An integrated fax server provides unified access to faxes and e-mail. Secure your network with the built-in packet filter, and use the HTTP and SOCKS proxy with cache for Internet sharing. Manage IP addresses with the included DHCP server. The integrated Web server provides access to the Web mail client, remote administration, and user home pages. SSL, ISAPI, CGI, and FastCGI support is available.
New enhancements in version 2003 are a firewall with logging, support for Windows Server 2003, built-in BitDefender Antivirus, and separate IP filters configurable for the proxy, SMTP, WWW, and remote administration services.

It has a proxy server component for controlled internet sharing and thus should be able to fulfill your requirements.
