Here are a couple of approaches:

- File screening

(http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Implementing-File-Screening-Windows-Server-2003-R2.html)

- Company policy: You formulate a suitable policy, get it approved

by management, then publish it. You then run a scheduled batch job

every night that will move all banned files to a dedicated disk on

some workstation. Most users will do the right thing immediately.

Those who don't will soon get the message.

Windows 2003 R2 has a feature called File Screening that will allow you

to do this. The only downside is that it only does it based on the file

extension. So, if someone were to save an mp3 file as .txt, it would

not be caught.

 

Hope this helps.
