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 ;-) Tom www.isaserver.org/shinder <http://www.isaserver.org/shinder> Get the book!

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.

Does anyone make a spyware blocker that can sit on my ISA server? Please?
