Really, you HAVE to do this anyway. Consider what happens if you miss one of the flavors of P2P and an employee exposes the company to risk. Is it the employee's fault because there's a policy against it? Or is it your fault because the 'firewall' didn't stop them?

In the meanwhile while we get the technical solution working, try simply putting out a hardcopy memo to everyone threatening dire consequences to anyone using kazaa in the work network (the multitude of threats justify this I believe) and reminding them that you, as net/sysadmin, know everything that happens on your net. In other words lie to them and let their ignorance scare them into doing what you want, like those marijuana = terrorism commercials.
