Looking for a discussion on IM

[Clark, Steve]

Hello,   I have been asked to research and potentially implement IM for a company to communicate internally as well as externally. However, I have always heard that IM was evil and to close it down ASAP. I would like to hear real world implementation concerns/ tips as well as the security issues associated.   Thanks in advance for your input.   Steve Clark Clark Systems Support, LLC AVIEN Charter Member “Who's watching your network?” www.clarksupport.com           301-610-9584 voice           240-465-0323 Efax   http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm
