Krisa, As this is a fairly frequently asked question, I am suprised that we still have not gotten a good answer. I can tell you that I have successfully been blocking P2P and Chat for a while now using a few combination layers of security. I am working to develop a document that will hopefully outline this in more detail. For now, I can tell you that I am using firewall rules to block Yahoo, MSN and AIM/ICQ servers in combination with a customized block list for Snort with FlexResp and NTop to monitor any additional chats that crop up. Please let me know if a solution like this would be worth the documentation.
