Hi All, Thanks for the warning on MSN Messenger. I have restricted access to the service from my network and suggest that it might be a good idea for others to do the same. I found that MSN Messenger uses TCP port 1863 but it also seems to fallback to an HTTP connection to various hosts on the "messenger.hotmail.com" domain. Therefore I found that I had to restrict the TCP port as well as any http connection attempts to this domain.
