>ISA won't be able to inspect the contents of compressed traffic thereafter - only the headers

Erm, maybe I'm missing something, but why not? Just decompress it and look at the data. It ain't encrypted.

You're not missing anything; it just wasn't designed to do that (yet?).

It's something that a Web Filter could do in conjunction with ISA, so that ISA inspects the decompressed content before the filter re-encodes it.

There was some (outside MS) talk of someone coding something like this a while back, but I don't think it ever actually happened.
