I'm unsure of details of your situation, but there are enough types of
games and ways to access them that you will not be able to block them
effectively. In a corporate environment, its really a management issue and
the most effective way of dealing with it is to set a policy documenting
the punishment of gaming at work and make it really not worth it.
