Subject: Recommendations for a Passive Web Content Monitoring solution?

One way to do it is to use squid running in transparent proxy mode (http
accelerator in its configuration) and using the firewall to forward the
packets to the transparent proxy. Although I would recommend setting up a
normal proxy and configuring on your client machines.
Then you could use one of the many squid log analyzers (even webtrends
supports it) and get your reports.
You would also gain navigation and save bandwidth by using a proxy. You can
also configure it to not cache anything, just log.

Btw, Im looking for a icq sniffer, I found one but its server (the packet
analyzer and rtf decoder) was a windows delphi binary... Does anybody knows
about one that runs on freebsd?
