Excellent information. Does anyone else have tibits like this? I've seen
bits and pieces floating around on things to watch for regarding "bad apps"
and ports.
We had an issue with a 3rd party company(now a dot-bomb) who provided
firewalling and virus scanning. We got them to block real audio bu
We might as well block all class A, B, and C addresses and kill all the
birds all together.
What is the purpose of giving users access to the Internet when you will
be blocking even the hotmail for them?
If you want them to access the company website only, then permit that

I can't imagine the problem with Messenger apps. I feel that instant
communication can be handy at times. Sometimes I hate waiting for an e-mail
response, and a messenger service fits that niche nicely. And no, they
don't waste bandwidth. The messages are usually smaller than e-mail. And

Let me put something into perspective here. It was said earlier about why
give access then block it. Why indeed... the why is for BUSINESS reasons..
not day trading, not stock tickers, not chatting for hours(documented) with
friends at the expense of work, viruses coming in on Hotmail attachments
I suppose it comes down to they type of company/employees. I'm more used to
companies that leave things fairly open for employees, and demand (rather
