Block everything but port 80, whatever email uses, and whatever ports skuzzy says you need for AH.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Or you could probably pull it off with OpenDNS. Even if not, it's still a great service.

My a/v lets me give permissions to individual programs. I kinda thought that was standard. Just block internet access to those apps.


I think.

I have a neighbour that gets to borrow my internet for school etc, but i dont want her to use limewire, kazaa and other software like that.   

How can i block those kinds of programs from going through my router?

Any ideas?

Waste of time trying unless you have a box like I sell. Anything less and it's just gonna tunnel out. That's what you get for promosing the girl next door free internet you perv :)

Im not getting why your worried about her useing her computer.Unless your worried she could DL something that could come back on you.Highly doubtful.

Well... because when she uses limewire and other filesharing software like that my cartoon plane warps like a chiwawa on ecstasy and my ping goes ping pong. :o

Well Sonicwall are releasing some new low end models based on their Cavium Octeon chipset shortly nilsen, wasn't allowed to talk about it but some idiot in their marketing department posted firmware release notes on the website so it's no big secret anymore :)  - TZ-100 should be fairly cheap, not sure what the throughput's gonna be like though.

Interesting  :)

Gonna have to have a consumer friendly price though. My cheapest option is to not let her use my network at all and make her get broadband. Only reason I let her now is because she is really sweet and walks the dog, mowes the lawn and water our plants when we are away or dont wanna. How she looks in a bikini has absolutly nothing to do with it  :D
