agreed.

However Syswatch please keep in mind that IDS is not perfect and the sheer volume of p2p clients/versions etc makes it VERY VERY difficult to keep on top off.

One trick i have found in general is to look at clients traffic logs. P2p programs tend to hog bandwidth at non business hours.

Another sword in your armory so to speak
