DOes anyone know which ports AOL, Yahoo or MSN IM programs use for access? I need to disable these programs here at work. I want to block all access to the ports they use.
 
Google is your friend!

The first in the list for "tcp/ip port msn messenger" gave me this:
MSN Messenger = 1863
Yahoo Messenger = 5000-5001
AIM = 5190

There's a few more than that - I suggest you have a look at the website for more info.
