Answer
Dear parth,

Based on the info you've provided, I'd suggest you first look at OpenDNS.com:
http://blog.opendns.com/2007/06/10/adult-site-blocking/
https://www.opendns.com/start/router/D-Link
and http://www.opendns.com/solutions/smb/

Since new porn sites are created daily and people have different opinions about what a porn site is, the OpenDNS community contributes.
See: http://www.opendns.com/community/domaintagging/?category_id=58

As far as blocking new and/or all porn sites, I could use my own words but:  http://ask-leo.com/how_do_i_block_porn.html addresses that issue pretty well.

For a list of other options see:
