(Well, I didn't try so I'm not sure..) Besides, it should be Corp World since I can not imagine that only Corp America is having this problem... But although that would give a lot of pressure, it would be even harder to arrange. AFAIK we don't have the problem because here, normal users can only browse the web using squid. SNAT is only available for us, admins and servers :o). They are using OUTPUT and INPUT chains as squid is running locally. However, that might go wrong when a messenger is able to use IE's proxy settings in which case I'd have to block in the other chains too. Gr, Rob
