To find this out you will have to set the logging on the web proxy service to Verbose. This will track all the users on your LAN who are accessing the internet and what sites they are visiting. I would recommend logging to an ODBC or SQL database and then you can extract the info for your report that way.

The logging capabilities included with Proxy are very generic. I would recommend searching the WWW for third-party software packages that are more user friendly. These software packages are much more flexible and allow you to extract and report only the data you desire. Some of these software packages may be able to work with SQL server, or even require it.

Additionally, I would be very careful when you set up logging. If not properly configured, these log files can grow immensely in size, and cause you to run out of disk space.
