Don't do that; this is a web hosting company used by the BIG boys
(Google, Yahoo, MS, etc.).
Block this domain set and you drop about 10% of your valid web traffic.

Subject: [isalist] ISA 2004 URL Sets mystery

Can anybody try this on ISA 2004? 
 
Create access rule for HTTP HTTPS which will block web access to
predefined URL Set   containing record http://*.akadns.net
<http://*.akadns.net/>   or *.akadns.net
Apply changes and then try to browse to not cached www.google.com
<http://www.google.com/>  or www.yahoo.com <http://www.yahoo.com/> 
And tell me if you pass through.  In my test network *.akadns.net blocks
www.google.com <http://www.google.com/>  . If I change it to
*.akadna.net its ok :-)
I tested this on 2 different ISA2004 boxes. 
 
Thanx David Farinic
