Actually, without the support of "those who make the rules", your ISA policies are so much floofy stuff. Get them to publish an "acceptable use policy" for the company and make the responses commensurate with the violation severity. Personally, I favor aluminum softball bats as a "user adjustment" tool; they make such a satisfying "bing" when they make skull contact.

It's amazing. It just rolls off the tongue. If I had my way, and I usually do for this sort of thing which is why this is so frustrating, I would simply yank their access. But there are others that feel that I have been reading to much BOFH lately and that I may create a user jihad against I.S. Personally, I don't see the issue. If you abuse the privilege of the fairly open access that we provide, you loose that privilege. But this is a new era I guess where I could hurt somebody's feelings for pointing out that surfing for cell phone ring tones, wall papers, screen savers, games, or wherever they are surfing when they download every web bug known for a computer THAT IS NOT THEIRS was not a proper use of company resources. Ahhhh ... Thanks for letting me vent. I feel much better now. Now... Where is that "bigger hammer"?
