You can do this by setting the
value [1803] to 3
of the key
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\3]

this works for internet explorer. if you need to do this for other browsers then you might have to do what TheyCallMeMrJames said

I don't think c# is the way to go here, you'd likely be best in native code as you'd need to get 'under' the web browser on the computer. You would need to be at the TCP/IP level and filtering the bits across the wire...minimally looking at request headers and response types.

It's not that this is impossible to achieve, it's just that you've added "without using any third party application" to the mix that complicates things.

You can get a managed router with web-configured interface that blocks ports, limits time, collects payments, throttles bandwidth and blocks adult content for less than $800. You can also get proxy software (possibly with similar controls) that lets you set up all kinds of rules.

Good luck in your project.

Cheers.
