Thanks Mark, i'll do some testing and see.

Hi Russ, does TMG cause known problems? We use chrome and ie across our site and have been looking into this recently. thanks

thanks for the comments, I normal just have hardware warranty cover then software is up to me.

Hi all, Just wondering on your thought on critical software support. I have taken over network management of a school who have 4hr critical software (hardware covered under manufacturer) support for some of their server (e.g. SIMS and a hyper-v cluster). Anyone else have this kind of cover? cheers
