Do it on his proxy server.. or get a free proxy server like wingate.. it allows him to filter websites by specifying the IP address that he wants to block.

Default Block @ Local Server

One advice for your friend is that he can block the ip address @ the local server which is distributing internet to other in the same premises.

You can easily get the ip address of porn sites using http://dnsstuff.com and then it can be blocked using firewall/proxy server if it is setup there.

Simply use a Good Firewall on your friend's cyber cafe server.
