Where there is a will there is a way, and from experience blocking sites does not work. Most of the time the employee spends more time trying to figure a way around the block than the time they would have spent just going to the site already. And in some cases, it takes them extra time every day to do said workaround.
Just like the OP said, now he has to log in remotely from his home computer to access this site. How much extra time will that take daily, weekly or yearly than just letting him goto the site strait up? I would be willing to bet that the work around will take at the very least 5 more minutes a day to do. So all in all the company now loses 5 additional minutes everytime he wants too surf to this site.
Blocking legal sites like this is not the answer.
My last job was in the IT field, and my former employee had no problems letting its people play around a little. But if the individual let it get out of hand they would fire them fairly quickly and all of the employee's knew this so it was never a problem.
