The fact is, without using a NAT-T-compatible client and server, IPSec won't travel across any NAT device.
As far as "turning off" ISA features, you're stepping into the realm of "unsupported actions".
ISA will NAT all traffic to / from the LAT; there's no way to "disable" this without breaking your ISA installation.

Thanks for your reply
Well, for one thing, I cannot use a IPSEC client from behind it (We are the
client; our customer is the "server"), which ISA does not allow.
Another is - a few times we have had problems accessing web sites and such
on "non-standard" ports.
Both these items can be resolved by using static IP addresses, but I would
like to be able to use NAT.
Also, I want to keep my/Web publishimg rules but just not restrict outbound
access under any circumstances.
I have added ALLOW ALL rules, to no avail
Thanks for any help
