Hi,
I'm looking for a way to allow ICQ to go through a firewall (probably the
Elron firewall, though we haven't made a final decision yet). I've heard
a lot of baaaad things about what running ICQ can do for your
vulnerability, so what I'd like to do is limit the client to doing ICQ
chat. No sending URLs, no sending files, no sending
<insert-latest-bloatware-feature-here>. Just chat.
Is this possible? What are people's thoughts on whether/how much this
would improve the security of using ICQ? (It seems to me that by only
allowing chat messages through, the worst someone could do is a DoS
attack...)
Thanks for any advice,
Richard
PS: If anyone has any advice or experiences to share with me concerning
the Elron firewall, I'd love to hear them!
