hi, i'm an administrator on a small business network. so i have to take care off the safety of our network.
now i read on the 'new features' site of messenger plus! 3.0 that you don't have to be a administrator to install plus.
i was wondering if anyone can give me more detailed information about how this works, and how i can prefent people from installing this around my back.

if you guys are using windows 2000 or above simply edit the hosts file to redirect the plus! page to say something like google ;)

I don't know if this might work, but I hope it helps.

As far as I know it wont work because you can, if its possible, use a proxy instead of the prot 1863
