If it's not based on protocol interpretation and file type look up, maybe it's some technology similar to this paper( "Nabs: A System for Detecting Resource Abuses via Characterization of Flow Content Type" http://isis.poly.edu/kulesh/research/pubs/acsac-2004.pdf)?

Would you care to clue us in as to what software,or hardware,this could be?
Sounds like it could possibly used in other ways as well.No more IPod,Zune,possibly others downloaded across your network,also?

Very intriguing,
Scott

PS: How large is your network,by the way?
