Is there a profanity filter or a suggested way to set one up? I would prefer not to have to monitor every comment.

Filter module
It's pretty easy to create filters... I suggest you look at urlfilter.module in contrib, which is simply 3 regular expression replacements wrapped in a filter module.
If it's just for personal use on your site (and you don't mind doing some simple PHP), this should do.
Wouldn't it simply be easier to get a userbase that doesn't swear though?

Profanity Filter
I thought that might be the appropriate place. It shouldn't take too much then.
RE user base. The website deals with tax problems. Enough said?

I've worked out a swearing filter. It queries a table with swearwords and their replacements in it. You can get it from here. It's a bit rough and ready, but it works!

How?
I installed the "Smileys" module (http://drupal.org/project/smileys). It works by scanning comments and posts for typical smiley faces like :), :/, ;), etc. and replacing that text with a graphic.
So to filter out profanity, I created several more filters for the words I don't want to see.
For instance, I added the word, f***, as an acronym. I am replacing it with a small 1px x 1px transparent .gif. (Actually, I am replacing it with a devilish smiley face, but you get the point.)
The Smiley filter system is kind of filtering out bad words of my choice.

Spam Filter Module
The Spam Filter module does a very good job of this. Easy to customize. You can choose which node types it will scan and also which user roles.
