Why block the port, just limit the ip/port to say 35 to 50 pps. He still
gets Hulu, and no real impact on your system.  Win  win

You know that would actually work.  If people can get to Hulu.com and the
videos have problems they would think Hulu is having a problem - not you.
After a few days of it working at the office and not working at home,
though, they may get curious.

I also believe that Hulu's flash player would come up with a complaint
saying it couldn't connect.
