Those are all good reasons, I agree. But Nick must have different
reasons, because otherwise he would be able to articualte these to the
users and to management. 
 
"Wasted time", though, is kind of a subjective one. There are legitimate
business uses for IM, just like for a telephone.

        Employee time wasted, virus, spam, wasted bandwidth, etc. Yes
some people are trying to spam instant messengers now days.

        Why don't you want them to?

                I have a growing number of people in my organization
that are using Yahoo Instant Messenger. I don't want them to use it but
I can't give them a reason not to. Can anyone tell me any reasons NOT to
use Yahoo Instant Messenger so I can validate taking it away?
