Souhela 8, You need to first to an nslookup for 'login.oscar.aol.com(below).' This hostname is the server that AOL Instant Messenger clients login to. > login.oscar.aol.com Server: UnKnown Address: 172.16.16.254 Non-authoritative answer: Name: login.oscar.aol.com Addresses: 205.188.7.176, 205.188.7.164, 205.188.7.168, 205.188.7.172 Then you need to create an object for each IPaddress that responds for login.oscar.aol.com. Put each object into a group, you can call it 'AIM Servers.' Then you need to create a rule which drops traffic to those servers(below). Src Dst Srv Act Trk 'LAN' 'AIM Servers' Any Drop Log You should be all set.
