Has anyone found a good solution to make sure users cannot download or save MP3 files? We have a fairly large sale based on the ability to make sure users cannot download or save etc MP3 files to their computers because the companies throughput is getting killeed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'd run a script nightly on machines to delete anything with the extension .mp3 after users download them and they continuously disappear each night they'll get the idea .... then use the app blocker to block the P2P apps that they use to download the mp3's as well.

Do you have a list of the applications your blocking?

I have not had any clients ask for this service - so do not have a list of apps, I am sorry ... I'd start tho by examing the installed app list on your machines you manage and comparing the executables to www.processlibrary.com to find known P2P programs to get a start on blocking them ....
