If they had all the right things installed and properly configured they
would not be permitted to access random sites or sites that didn't
properly show content types, and would not be permitted to download
anything without a pass-code.

In a business there is little reason to allow full access to the
Internet from inside the lan. Most internet access, from what I've seen,
lends itself to wasted time by employees at all levels in a company.

If you only allow access to business partner sites, sites that are
needed for business, then you expose yourself to a LOT LESS of your
network, not to mention that you should be blocking all sorts of content
in HTTP sessions and filtering attachments BEFORE the reach the mail
server.
