If ISA is removed and reinstalled, you lose all the rules, settings, etc.

This might be a positive thing if you're in the situation you're in as the
result of the rule configuration, but it also means setting up all the
access rules, publishing rules, and packet filters again.

If you have a pretty clear idea of what to do, this is probably the simplest
method of getting everything where it needs to be (and there are several
guides on the web and at http://isaserver.org ) on general ISA Server
configuration.

If you experience a specific problem with what you're trying to achieve, I'd
strongly suggest contacting PSS, explaining the situation, and working with
them on it.

If you're able to run ISAINFO on the server and email me the text file
output ( http://isatools.org ), I'll take a quick look at the settings and
let you know if there are any simple things you could do. You need to remove
"online." from my posting address to email me.

If you suspect you've been hacked (from other post), it'd be a good
opportunity to rebuild the box, changing all the passwords used on it; IMO,
it's the best way to be sure.
