Re: Blocking Kazaa

[SBlaze <dagent.geo@yahoo.com>]

I don't know much about Kazzaa I never used it...but you said you checked the
connection ports right? What about source ports. Check both the source and the
destination port(s) and see if you see any consistencies. Sometimes you don't
need to block ALL ports just the ones that initiate a connection.

Hope this helps
