Sonicwall not blocking IRC

It appears that on one my colo box has a trojan horse on. I setup a rule to block TCP port 6667 - 6669. But this traffic is still coming through. I think the problem is that the since the traffic originates from his box behind the firewall the packets are allowedl. How do I block this using my sonicwall pro 200 firewall

Thanks.

Block outbound IRC, from the server in question to anywhere:

DENY      IRC (6667 - 6669)     Server1 (192.168.1.1)          ANY (*)



If the packets are originating internally then it will have to be blocked from internal to external.

Ok so If I create a rule called BLOCKIRC that block 6969 and setup

deny LAN > WAN   BLOCKIRC

will this block this traffic even if's established.

Also is there any way to use the sonicwall to break an existing connection.
It will stop furthe rocnnections...

To /break/ existing cobbections, you will have too either restart, or pull the plug for a few seconds.
A restart for /maintenance/ may we wise.

Isn't there a way to setup a route on sonicwall to route the offending IP to /dev/null
