@WD_Doug Include use of P2P and Torrenting as violations in your employee computer use policy and fire the SOB. Worked for me.

I worked for a very large Fortune 500 corporation in the U.S., and that was exactly the policy in place. Depending on the particular severity of the offense, you got one free "forgiveness" (but a write up still went in your file to potentially be used against you at annual review time), but a subsequent offense got you the door (as in "out the door"). Some first-time offenses (such as a downloading/viewing or heaven forbid, distributing, porn) got you fired right away. No second chance.
