What type of content are you looking to filter? Also, is this for a webserver? The link you provided would seem to imply that, but little information is provided.

You might want to take a look at this. The more information you provided, the easier it is for others to help.

It's never easy to outfox some folks.

There is no best. You can try to limit. Everyone makes a firewall of some type. You'd want a layer 7+ to get into application not just site. ClearOS offers a community version that has a pretty good set of tools free.

Guess you could simply use a white list on iptables to mostly only allow what you want. Sometimes easier to allow some rather than to deny millions.

Generally I say that you have to use a number of best practices to avoid some issue.
