Why not apply the principle of least privilege to take care of this? Permit only what should be allowed and block everything else.

Ex.
permit tcp mailserver any eq 25
Permit other outbound expected traffic
Permit tcp any any eq 80
Permit tcp any any eq 443
Deny any any

This should take care of 95% of instant messaging, streaming media and file sharing. Also, there are different implementations of instant messaging, p2p that run over port 80 to circumvent such firewall policy, but this may be a good start.I would suggest content filtering that allows group and individual URL blocking, and my experience with Websense has been great although there are many vendors that offer other products. Check with your firewall vendor for products that can be integrated.
Good Luck
