How to block specific user agent

skm
Is it possible to block specific user agent? We have many XP Computers in our Network and every have IE8. Is it possible to block Internet Access for them somehow? I though about User Agent blocking but if someone have better idea then you're welcome [:)]

    Blocking no, but after the fact you can inspect the logs to find them, it is logged as ua=

    grep [IE8 User agent sting] /var/log/http.log

    Then scrip= and user= to determine who they are.  Then walk over to their machines and update them.

    As for shutting down XP or IE8...  I would be tempted to look more at Active Directory and Domain tools.
