Re: Microsoft Exchange IM logging

BlueCoat can do this.  IM is a difficult one to track due to its ability to 
port hop, but BlueCoat's port 80 Security appliances are able to track IM 
usage irrespective of which port it uses.

Their product is basically a proxy server - like Microsoft's ISA server but 
more secure - with caching, URL filtering, bandwidth management, and 
options to tie in with AV products like Finjan's SurfinGate and Symantec AV 
via the ICAP protocol.

Here's a link to the relevant part of the website:
