Indeed this has come up regularly. I remain skeptical that placing the burden for enforcing policy such as this lies with the firewall and the firewall administrators. OK, so you block Napster and AOL. Now then, what about E-trade? Yahoo? Merrill Lynch, Dilbert.com? not to mention the various picture sites that so many disapprove of. How about all the radio stations people are listening to over the net? Now, what happens when some person or business unit has a good business reason for accessing AOL or other sights that you are blocking on your firewall? I'm talking to the wind, I suppose, but my first question when this topic comes up, is "what is the written policy regarding internet access?" the second question is "will management pay for what it requires to accomplish this policy?" But relying on port blocking, or address blocking, or domain name blocking, on a case by case basis seems a bit shortsighted.

If u want to block AIM outgoing from ur network, u should try to block the IP Addresses of the login server of AIM which is "login.oscar.aol.com" The AIM App is designed to scan for ports other than 5190 to login to the server, so port blocking will not work always.
