Hi! Is there any good Tools/programs for windows 2008 server that has more options than "File Server Resource Manager" to block specified file types to be downloaded to shared volumes. Things i want the Tool to do besides blocking files types, is to set som kind of limit on how big the downloaded file can be. It would be nice if it also could find doublets files and deny downloading of doublets files. Thanks in advance /B
