Ha, world is not as simple. The owner of that notebook is using it for other purposes and it is his private property. He will absolutely not accept to be covered by SecureClient all the time, and to have set his policy by a central management of the IT department. (The owner of this notebook can't be administratively overriden, since he is the director of the IT department.) It is acceptable if the notebook is under control of SecureClient for those 10 minutes a day when the client is connected to the company network. It is not acceptable for the 23:50 of the day when he isn't. Then he needs the XP Firewalls. There are two problems: - Turning on and off the XP Firewall is too much overhead. - The gap between turning one firewall off and the other on allows attacks. So it should be possible to configure the XP firewall to simply allow what's needed for running SecureClient.
