Might be kind of irrelevant but most winblows malware will be most
interested in contacting port 25.  They would also like port 80 to
download updates but unfortunately the users would be a bit pissed if you
blocked that

Locking down high ports going out will just make things very difficult
with very little increase in security.  Using the coral web cache would be
impossible, for example.

But hey, it's your network so do as as you wish.  One possible workaround
is set up a proxy server for the clients and allow only that to get out
through your lockdown.  Having a 2 layer firewall with DMZ is a more
standard way to do it anyway.
