Hi there

Browse Control now includes Application Blocking and so allows you to
Block Kazaa and infact any applications which users try to run on
their client PCs e.g. MS Messenger, etc. You can download Browse
Control from:

http://www.codework.com/bcontrol/product.html

By the way your idea below of Blocking port 1214 may not work since
Kazaa is quite clever and can port hop. Browse Control gets round that
by blocking the application itself.

Cheers
Divyesh
