By the way, we do such things here on a web-proxy server (squid).

Workstations don't have direct access to the 'net, only using a proxy.
Which is - IMHO - something that every place should enforce - if not
only to be able to understand where this particular malware come from,
by analyzing proxy logs etc.

And on the proxy, the list of "bad" domains is configured (we use
redirect program with squid).  Works pretty well.
