Shastri, try the below Assume... 1. Preventing Downloads File (nodowns.txt) has the following \.msi$ \.exe$ \.zip$ \.etc$ 2. Trusted Sites File (goodsites.txt) has the following *.*microsoft*.com* *.*windows*.com* *.*etc*.com*.com* 3. Accompanying ACLs for files above acl nodowns urlpath_regex -i "/path_to/nodowns.txt" # With quotation marks acl goodsites dstdomains -i "/path_to/goodsites.txt" # With quotation marks 4. Controlling Rule http_access deny nodowns !goodsites # Put it above any "allow" rule The above is my thinking, and I could do with correction. # Edmonds On Fri, Jun 29, 2012 at 12:30 PM, Chaitanya Shastri <chait.shastri@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi Amos, > > I have acl rules for preventing downloads on client machines.
