Um, we are not trying to secure the proxy. We are offering everyone unlimited Internet access whether we trust them or not and
whether their department heads like it or not. It is our mandate. It is a function we must perform.

That's not the problem. The problem is, for those users we CAN authenticate, how do we do that without a Guest account on ISA
server? Can't be done, unless you consider a person is authenticated by his/her IP address, which is nonsense.

And as far as the paychecks go, the Printers Union won't let us do that.
