729925 2008-12-17 00:51:00 What is a good program/system to throw on a spare PC, since my family doesnt understand capped broadband, and seem to suck up 20gigs way before the month is out (seriously dont ask, i really have no idea where it goes) I have ISA 2004 CD in a drawer but have encountered issues in the past. I want to cache wweb requests so it comes off the proxy server hdd, thus minimising usage. We use oulook to access gmail (pop3s/smtps).

Any suggestions? (Talking to the culprits doesnt seem to work)

Or if theyre paying for it, dont worry about it..

729927 2008-12-17 00:56:00 kinda hard to disconnect them, when they use different laptops aidanmaz (7180)
729928 2008-12-17 00:57:00 Kill the wireless or ethernet then.

729929 2008-12-17 01:05:00 mixed wired/wireless, i wud have thought the proxy wud be a good idea, as it works for corporations aidanmaz (7180)
729930 2008-12-17 01:07:00 Well if theyre going through a router for the wired/wireless, use QOS in the router, that may help.

Then they may struggle to get or do anything :lol:
