I'd rather leave the firewalling side to something a bit more robust.. also having to load client software is a drag.. Personally I use linux.. (and it doubles as a mail scanner (scanmail) AND ITS FREE! the whole lot (firewall, mailscanner, DNS,) cost me $200 later B -----Original Message----- From: Ely, Don [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 17 July 2002 20:42 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: IM You're replacing a PIX with ISA?!?!?!? ROFLMFAO!!! Yeah OK, like I'm gonna trust MS only to secure my network... Hell, leave the PIX in the front of ISA and use them both, but for gods sake, don't weaken your defenses! -----Original Message----- From: Jesse Rink [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 2:34 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: IM Blocking P2P programs like Kazaa is HUGE. I'm moving to ISA myself in 2 weeks and replacing our old PIX. As I mentioned in another message, we block IM programs because it's just another avenue for idiots to fart around in and lower bandwidth for non-work related activities, not to mention more chances of getting viruses. There's no way to actively monitor the "content" moving through your IM programs, and if content monitoring is important to you, not allowing those programs should defienitely be investigated. If you're users are responsible and don't get into alot of junk they shouldn't, this mihgt not be as big a deal. > I figured the overwhelming answer was no.
