Search in               Request Headers
HTTP header        Content type
Signature              application/x-bittorrent

                    But still users can download stuffs from torrent sites.Please help me how to block torrents completely.(Any torrent applications)

Hi,

usually the torrents applications are blocked by ISA firewall default rule. If you don't have an allow all access rule, I guess you should be fine on blocking it.

Hi.

Just allow only HTTP and HTTPS protocols from you Internal or Perimeter network to access the External network if your purposes are for browsing only.

Hope this will help you.
