[Resending info]
I am not sure, but since the pointcast program uses a specialized
"browser" that in some versions of pointcast identifies itself as
"Pointcast 1.0" or the new client which identifies itself
as "Mozilla/1.2 (compatible; PCN- The Pointcast Network)"
{yes, they changed with the lastest version of the client... I
wonder why... ;-0 }
[but still some firewalls can filter based on the agent STRING not
just the user agent itself]
you can either block all other agents, and allow only the ones that
you know should be used (allowed), or only deny only the pointcast
agent(s). [or any agent that may be destructive/bandwidth hog.
