If you don't want to buy software, you can use the SDK.

HTH,

The SDK is included on the CD.

Status: offline 		After a couple of days of playing with SDK, i am testing a webfilter, which drops http 200 responses if the Content-Length in request header exceeds hardcoded value.

The good news is that it works (still testing).

The bad news are:
Its firewall-wide and can't bind to policy.
Its limited to hardcoded value (no settings).

The settings issue isn't that hard to code. However, to have policy specific settings functionality is VERY hard to accomplish.

Azfar, I will share it when i finish it.

And no, it can't be done using max payload length, as it is the length of REQUEST, not the length of the RESPONSE (the one you want to block).

Status: offline 		Well, i must say i am puzzled. This payload size simply does not works for me.

Have you tried to download something larger than payload size?

For example, I have set payload size to 1000000 bytes. Now, this url is 2,77MB Some demo softvare download
No matter what i configure for payload size, this request succeeds...

Though it isn't finished yet, Here is Content Length filter with hardcoded 2000000 bytes maximum payload size. Have fun
Content Lenght Filter

Installation
1) Copy it to Program Files\Microsoft ISA Server (or anywhere else), extract the dll.
2) Start->Run->cmd
3) Change to directory where you extracted .dll
4) Type "regsvr32 ContentLengthFilter.dll"
5) wait for regsvr success dialog
6) Open ISA Server Management
7) Go to Configuration-> Add-ins
8) Press F5, and you should see this filter.
9) Make sure it is enabled (it should be by default)

Deinstallation:
1) Start->Run->cmd
2) Change to directory where you extracted .dll
3) Type "regsvr32/u ContentLengthFilter.dll"
4) wait for regsvr success dialog

That's it.

Remember that filter is firewall wide! It is applied to all http traffic, in or out. Regardless of policies. And it's hardcoded to 2000000.
