Subject:   Effective ipfw rules for blocking MSN Messenger ... ?
Message-ID:  <20041223125410.X1788@ganymede.hub.org>

I just setup a FreeBSD box for a router, so that I could make use of ipfw 
to block MSN Messenger traffic ... but I'm having a bugger of a time 
finding a "definitive" list of what needs to be blocked :(

MSN Messenger appears to be smart enough to go *around* the usual port 
1863 and onto port 80 if it needs to ...

Can someone that has successfully done this using ipfw send me a list of 
rules, since obviously I'm not catching it :(

Thanks ...
