nuqneH,

I won't call it "safely" until some experts will analyse it in depth.
I don't trust Checkpoint in general.

Guru advice please.

I'm no guru, but I'll still comment!

Could we allow clients to safely use MSN services including Netmeeting
options with MSN from our LAN to the internet.

Ig. You need a firewall which can safely proxy H.323. Firewall-1, for example, has a proxy for it. Alternatively, you 
can follow Microsoft's advice for "configuring" your firewall, but I wouldn't recommend it. Basically, you have to 
allow UDP through to all ports above 1024. This is generally frowned upon. ;-)
