Hei,
 
I'm faced with a network were more companies use one DSL connection.
One of the companies use Citrix, here we can control everythng, no add.
software can be installed by end users
The other network though is win98 /XP clients with no server, they use
shares on each workstation to distribute data (foolish way).
One of the clients on this network has "Realtime Spy" software installed, so
it can be monitored from outside, this creates a lot of internet traffic and
it seems they can take control of her actions, we've seen downloads of over
200M of MP3 on several days.
 
I've tried all things to stop it but'it seems the only way is to reinstall
the pc.
There is a ISA server acting as firewall but it sees the traffic as UNKNOWN.
The problem is that they are not in the domain where the ISA server is
working, so I can't create good rules to stop it, even with several control
software they only are designed for domain level.
 
What I'm looking for is a tool to stop any traffic from any pc IP based.
any help would be welcome
 
grx
Rob
