Dude you are faast! Follow the same procedure for MSN too.. Like you need to identify which file it uses to connect to proxy, may be "msmsgs" and you may need to do the same steps and create destination set for that.

It worked fine. What about the MSN Messenger. I blocked it on the ISA but when I play around in the connections TAB and I check I use proxy then I choose Socks and in the IP address I add the loop back address, it works fine !!!!!!! Any suggestions ?? Thanks again.

The problem with Yahoo Messenger is once you block port 5050 Outbound, it will keep trying other ports which will also slow down your network. Here you go... 1. In ISA MMC, browse thru Policy Elements - Destinationset- Create New Set- Deny Yahoo- ADD- A) shttp.msg.yahoo.com B) shttp.msg.yahoo.com/notify C) insider.msg.yahoo.com D) update.messenger.yahoo.com E) us.dl1.yimg.com F) us.update.companion.yahoo.com G) ypager.exe (IMPORTANT) H) yupdater.exe (IMPORTANT) 2. Now, browse thru Accesspolicy-Site&ContentRule-NewRule-Deny Yahoo-Deny-Custom-Specified Destinationset-Deny Yahoo to any request You are done, You may want to restart isactrl, and try to login to your Yahoo Messenger. This shuld work...! Good Luck.!
