Can I block chat, instant messaging, P2P and ftp downloading?

0

Yes. Under “Protocol Blocking” you can restrict access to certain forms of internet usage. The following options are available: • FTP – File Transfer Protocol: Often illegal software and pornographic material is downloaded in this way, but it is also used as a legitimate form of uploading and downloading to and from websites. • NNTP – Used for Internet News groups. • P2P – Peer to Peer Internet File sharing. A tremendous amount of inappropriate/illegal software and pornographic material, video and images are available for download if P2P is enabled. • IRC – Internet Relay Chat allows chat, such as MSN, AOL or Yahoo Messenger etc.
