YOu might want to watch that CuteFTP program.  Older versions try to get
out on every port on your firewall to get to the advertisement servers.
It is basically mapping the inside of your firewall outbound ports.  I
had a Raptor box where it just went up the port list from 1024 on up.
At the time I was only letting certain outbound ports.  This is
standard.  The thing was that until I got rid of CuteFTP on that
workstation that it probably had mapped my inbound/outbound dynamic
ports on my firewall.  Look at your logs to see if it was doing the same
thing.  This is similiar to spyware.

List folk,

Just thought I'd share the result of a couple of days of trying to get a
cuteftp connection happening through out Cache only ISA box.

trying to get an external ftp site would come up with 10060 timeouts or
message boxes about protocol violations.
We have Symantec Web Security (Anti Virus Only) running on the ISA as
the
upstream proxy.
Turns out if I set up a routing rule to bypass this SWS proxy for my
destination ftp site it works a treat.

just another little snippet that may save someone some time..

cheers
Neil
