Did you get any reply? I wish to do the same however MS's suggestions didn't
work. I've got to get my daughter back to homework and off Messenger! Here is
the reply I got from MS, incase it works for you.
....to do this, please refer to this Microsoft Knowledge Base article on how
to restrict users from running specific Windows Programs: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=323525
Furthermore, you may also block the port as well as the HTTP proxy used by
MSN Messenger. Please block port 1863 and http://messenger.hotmail.com to
block Messenger on your network.
You are valuable here at MSN. Please do not hesitate to write back if you
have other concerns. You may also opt to use our on-line help located at: http://messenger.msn.com/help.
The problem is there seems to be know way to block WEBmessenger. I've
blocked the DNS and IP address range but now there are places like http://e-messenger.net and http://iloveim.com/ popping up all over the place.
We would have to hive a full time person just to keep up with all the DNS /
IP address blocks.
