OK, I'll try dropping down to your level for a second: "I know you are, but what am I?" Did I hit the right age group? Was that something you're capable of understanding?


There is no need to check outgoing if you don't allow incoming Viruses, Trojans etc.


And you're able to guarantee 100% that everyone, yourself included, is 100% capable of ensuring that 100% of all malware is blocked? How much money are you willing to put behind that assertion? The whole point behind monitoring out-bound traffic is to let one know that something slipped by one's other safeguards. Will it be 100% effective? No. But it's certainly better than nothing.


How many posters were told to shut down outgoing scanning?


None, that I've ever seen, unless one counts trolls such as yourself who are deliberately passing out destructive advice.


How many posters have problems due to output scanning.


With a properly configured firewall? None, whatsoever.


Are you deaf and dumb?


No, nor do I see what speech and/or hearing impediments could possibly have to do with this discussion.

As you've been completely unable to offer any facts or rational arguments to support your assertions, I suggest you give it up and refrain from embarrassing yourself further.
