Hi Jason,
 
I always use a host based solution. The if you try to do it at the
firewall, the "law of unintended effects" becomes the operating
principle and bedlam could be a significant problem ;-)

        Just out of interest, what is the general consensus when it
comes to preventing spyware on user computers? Personally, I've
configured our domain so that none of our users are local admins, this
way spyware is never able to get a foothold on their dektops. This has
been very effective so far, the only occaissional outbreaks we get are
from management who insist on being local admins.
         
        Cheers,
         
        Jason

                I'm sure this has been asked a hundred times, feel free
to heckle, but please answer. Does anyone make a spyware blocker that
can sit on my ISA server? Please? I asked nicely.
