Skype

I am forced to allow skype on my business network. :-(

I created a dedicated socks server for skype. The problem is even though you provide a socks server to Skype, it will still try to go on the internet directly when a socks connection is established.

This generates thousands of logs on the firewalls, making the firewall log reading impossible.

I'm using Cisco PIX.

Any solution for not logging Skype activity or forcing Skype to use the Socks server only?

Thank you.
