http://www.ISAserver.org

it seems to affect yahoo games (don't know what the specific sites are)
but also www.partypoker.com,. www.pokerstars.com - I know it may be
unwise to allow these in a proper business environment, but I use them
myself so if I can make it safe I have no problem allowing it.  It did
work under 2000 ISA, with no help from me.  
 
Before I messed with all the direct access stuff, I could go to their
websites, just could not launch the game playing application.  Now I
cannot even get to the website, but ISA appears (after I did the access
rule - protocol and IP specific) to be allowing the application to run,
but the first thing it does is go to the website to check for updates,
and is 403 forbidden....

On SBS2k3 prem - OK, I actually think I got ISA to allow these programs
to work, but somehow I have at the same time blocked access to the
sites.  I added the sites for direct access, that did not work, then
found out the exact protocol and IP address and created an access rule
for that (and deleted the direct access by domain name).  Now it seems
to want to work, but now the domain site itself is banned by ISA (I can
not even go there in IE like I could before).  So I think that by
deleting the direct access rule or some other thing I did, I am now NOT
allowing access to the site.  I get the 403 forbidden error.  But all I
ever did was add the domain/IP and then delete it.  Any ideas?  Maybe I
should rerun the CEICW again and then start fresh?

I have also just purchased Toms book, but will not have it for a few
days, so the dumb questions will continue.... 

Thanks.
