Hello:

I like to disable JavaScript, java, activex, and install on demand, or just
run a AntiVirus with browser protection.
AV usually catches common malicious web content as a user surfs the web.
But as you know, nothing is 100% secure.

What has worked for me is AntiVirus, and it has catched many sites with
malicious .js and .vbs code,
trying to execute in the background, as pop-ups pop all over the screen.

Being that you content filter, make sure you block all malicious sites.
(porn-Trojan sites-warez-hacking-ect.)

Good Luck,
Dom~

Hi all,

Another question.....

We have anti-virus software on all out PC's.  We have a Firewall that, as
far as I can determine, is well configured ( Default deny, limited open
ports etc ), and web page content filtering ( Information content, not code
content).

My question is how worried should we be about malicious code in web pages
out users access and what steps can we take to mitigate the risk beyond
implementing IE and Outlook security zones.  Is there anything else we can
do without spending money on content filtering technology?

Many thanks.

S.
