I have 12 new XP-Pro machines in a high school library. Despite
typical warnings some students manage to get an MP3 download running
in the background.
The school is mixed Mac/PC and the servers and system proxy/firewall
are Mac, with little/no active support person.
Can I configure the XP-Pro firewall on a per-machine basis to block
downloads of a particular filetype?
Any other ideas on how to block MP3 downloads?? Others must be having
this problem, and hopefully have some solution other than outmoded
approaches involving 30 Cm rulers (Here in Actually Metric Africa) and
knuckles, like when I was in 5th grade. That was a real long time ago!
