The way I have done it in the past is to transparent proxy http and
https, and then block all traffic from the workstation in question.

 implement this?
 
 Thanks,

If AIM can't connect on port 5190, it tries a bunch of other ports to 
try to get through such as the ports for ftp, http, nntp, etc. so good luck.

Get a piece of software that has specific
controls to do it. AIM will start to randomly port search if it detects
it cant get through on a standard port. And youll do a lot
of chasing your tail to cover that.



Stuff like Spector, etc. can block it
entirely.
