Depends on the ISA administrator.

It's possible to make ISA (and Exchange) relatively standards-friendly,
but Microsoft doesn't make it that easy. Generally, when you configure
them, there are some options where one alternative is standard-friendly
and the other(s) aren't, but you have to understand what you're doing
to spot which ones will cause problems and why.
