In short, it's practically impossible. Skype was written by the same people who wrote Kazaa.. so blocking www access to their server won't help (they can register through proxies) etc. and it tends to be really good at getting round firewalls. Having said that, there is a post on full disclosure about someone who managed to do that (well at least block 80% traffic) http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2005-November/038646.html > > Thanks in advance > > Wire -- patrick _______________________________________________ LUG mailing list [email protected] http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug %LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
