In the current world of hacks and worms everywhere, I would suggest you don't allow that. Otherwise, what's to stop visiting salescritter from releasing a malicious worm and/or using other means to steal data? In an age where more and more governments are passing legislation to hold the executive personally accountable for what happens to private customer data, a corporate policy that says "nothing not owned/managed by the corporation goes on the corporate network" is not an unreasonable stance to take, and one I've seen written into policy at more than one site. I feel dirty just thinking about salescritter's laptop on my network! ;) -Eric -- arctic bears - email and dns services http://www.arcticbears.com
