The could easily use Group Policy to set the proxy configuration, and to
completely remove access to those components from the users.

Hi Andy,

OK, so the problem isn't with the firewall client, its with the users
manually setting their Web proxy to a different address.

How about an access rule that explicitly denied TCP 8080 from Internal
--> External?

HTH,

Hi Tom,

Got both ISA 2000 books, both are excellent and useful resources.

Our config looks like

                Internet
                   |
               ISAServer4
                   |
                  DMZ
     --------172.16.0.0/16-------- 
    |              |              |
  ISA1            ISA2          ISA3
    |              |              |
Corporate      Education       Library
10.x.0.0/16    10.y.0.0/16     10.z.0.0/16

Some users in the corporate network have their proxy set to
172.16.10.10:8080, ISAServer4. They have the firewall client configured
to
use 10.1.1.30, ISA1.

It appears that the firewall service on ISA1 is direting the port 8080
traffic to ISAServer4 where the Webproxy service takes over.

I've tried it and our security officer has tried it and it does bypass
the
content filtering on ISA1.

Anonymous access is allowed on ISAServer4 which is in a workgroup. ISA1,
ISA2, ISA3 are in separate 2000 domains and all require authentication.

The content filtering for the Library network is less restrictive than
the
Corporate network. The Eductaion network is the most tightly controlled.

My worry is if the knowledge of this mechanism gets into the schools
then
we will no longer be able to properly protect the children from
inappropriate web content on the education network.

It is obviously a mistake in my configuration somewhere but I think I'm
going to need some suggestions.

Cheers Andy,
