Didn't I just get done telling you what your solution is?

Now, you changed the requirements a bit. Now you want ALL applications to be denied access to the 'Net. Your best solution is now a firewall between either your network and your ISP, or installed on your machine. Either way, you'll need some kind of management app to control the firewall, like turning it on and off, opening/closing ports, ...

If you're new to socket apps, writing your own firewall will be next to impossible. You'll need an in depth knowledge of writing NDIS drivers, like Colin said, which you really can't do in VB.nET or C#. You'll need to be familiar with the TCP/IP stack and how Microsoft implements it.

I know how to mix a wheelbarrow of concrete, but it doesn't really help me in building a dam, now does it?
