I
haven't really looked into Kazaa as I don't use it.. They must login to a server
somewhere.. it's gotta be able to block the server login somehow..
anyway....
"using
string POM". Yes but remember that because they could be using any port, your
rules will be very broad ( iptables -A FORWARD -j tcp -m string --string
"Kazaa") and will check every single packet passing through the server.. This
will cause some CPU overhead, so if you have a P3 1Ghz or whatever... then your
probably safe..

Please tell me what is POM. I tried blocking url_regen from squid. It has
blocked kazza sites but still users are able to down load through search. I have
just started learning Iptables, totally new. But by going through mail archieve
i think STRING blocking is similer to URL_regen blocking in squid.
Thanks
