I can't say much for proxy ports, but for my
environment (urban public high school), I did a brief
search on CNET.com and ZDNET.com and through Windows
2000 policies prohibited those particular P2P programs
from being executed. There were really only about 10
or 12; the most popular are Morpheus
policy (you do have one of those as well - right?) to
see if the firewall is a little "too" open allowing the abuse to occur...
Just my thoughts...

a strictly enforced corporate policy is the best way to stop p2p
filesharing use. make an examp
This issue comes up every once in a while, and not everyone will be polite
in their answer. Consider yourself warned. I'll try to cover as many of
the ideas as possible. You'll find plenty of info if you search the

Maybe you need to tighten your firewall all the way! If all these ports are
open, you are vulnerable. Close off all ports, and open what you need from a
business standpoint - that will vary by what your organization does and what
internet access you allow. But it sounds like you are way to generou
You could disallow your users to install programs on their computers, so
that only authorized software is used.
