Daer Bob,
I have written an IDL application (IQM) for interactive image
processing and the IDL's Median, Smooth and Lee Filtering is
implemented without edge effects.
More info and a tutorial of the application can be found at:
http://www.uni-graz.at/people/ahammer/IQM/index.htm
If you send me an e-mail, I can give you the download password.

Best wishes,
Helmut Ahammer
