Hiya, sorry to hijack your thread! Just wondering what OS that batch file runs in? I can't seem to get it to work. Cheers, Michael

Hi there guys, thanks for your suggestions I'm currently compiling a small list of the kinds of sites the kids are visiting. I've had a go on Cachepilot to block "asx", its spec says you can block by file type but I guess doing it by content type is a bit beyond its capabilities. It does do OU-based URL filtering very nicely though! Our ISA server has a lot of firewall rules that the LEA have put in recently; I very rarely look at the ISA server, it's covered by the LEA's support contract so I just call them if anything stops happening! That said, I can add rules to it if necessary. Tom: If you could lend a hand that'd be great! I know I'm just a n00b on this forum at the mo! I'll get a list to you today (no hurry though!) Cheers, Michael

Pretty much as the title suggests, we use a combination of Cachepilot and ISA as supplied by our friendly local authority. I've got cachepilot set up with AD and a blacklist of sites we block the kids from going to. However, thanks to the wonderful world of web proxies we're losing practically all our bandwidth to the kids streaming audio from the likes of last.fm, BBC iplayer and Radio Blog to name but a few. Question is, can I stop the kids from accessing the streaming content from these sites using the pupils blacklist, while still allowing the staff group to access it? I'm not up to scratch with ISA though I suspect it could do the job if I knew how! Any help would be much appreciated on this! Many thanks, Michael
