Hi,
Is ther any way I can block prono using Linux Firewall or some kown application.
[snip] the soln approach to ur prob can hav 2 approaches... --> A GPL 1 --> The usual Closed Source 1.... as for the gpl 1...there r numerous ways to get to achieving ur objective.
Using Squid as ur proxy with ACL's in place andurl bannin depending on text in url's is possible thro Squid.
AFAIK....for trappin viruses is cocerned, u can achieve that by havin AMAVIS on the gateway in conjunction with a copy of either Macfee or Norton. Which can be configured to scan ur mail traffic for viruses. If there is nyhelp u want on this....u can always ask...or just meet me on yahoo msngr..."trevorwarren".
