Are there any 'advanced' routers that would do things like:
Does this exist or does one have to create a dedicated computer (prob. running linux) to do this?

you're looking for an enterprise router, much cheaper to setup a spare box with Vyatta.
The Vyatta Community Edition (VC) is award-winning, Linux-based, open source software providing routing, firewalling, VPN, intrusion prevention, and WAN load balancing services, among others, for your network. When you run Vyatta on a standard x86 hardware system, you'll create a powerful network appliance that can run circles around proprietary systems. Vyatta also runs virtualized in VMware, Xen, Hyper-V, and other hypervisors, providing networking and security services to virtual machines.

a router with SYSLOG (system log) feature can "store all urls visited or attempted to access on computers connected to the router"
and most routers come with a firewall witch you can configure to filter traffics to/from some IP addresses. or using OpenDNS for that.
