Here's what we do, cost = 0$ also.
Run a reporting tool, we use Loggerythm (basically because I wrote it :) at
http://www.loggerythm.com/ for the moment this a free, this makes nice HTML
reports on who is doing what, we just simply make these public (within the
organisation), if someone wants to surf porn then they have to live with the
fact that everyone will know about it (and they are all aware of this), this
works very well, maybe not so good for schools :) but certainly for other
places where the work force is adult and have been warned and should know
better, I just had a look down the top 100 sites surfed here and not a one
is porn site, that's for about 250 users, this is a lot cleaner than it was
when it was all hidden.
Like I said, this solution is not for everyone but it does have the
advantage of not getting into blocking stuff which is something I don't
really want to do if I can get out of it. I only block a few MP3 sites but
that's a bandwidth issue and not a censorship issue.

I know this sounds obvious (and pretty distasteful) but I made my list (not
the one that started the original post by):
a) Coming in on a weekend
b) Clearing the ISA logs
c) Surfing every port site I could find - only takes about 10 minutes as
each site seems to open about 50 others(!)
d) Cutting all the addresses out of the ISA log and using them as an exclude
list (I used LANguard to import them from a text file) - dont know if this
is directly possible in ISA ?
e) Telling senior staff what I was doing - so that they dont get the wrong
idea(!)
Every month or so I do the same thing. Seems to work pretty well for us in
getting a reasonable list very quickly and painlessly. Incidentally I
installed the latest Surfcontol on my ISA box and it crashed the web proxy
so I pulled it off again :(
