Possible with XP firewall?

Hi there,

I am wondering if it is possible for the XP firewall to only let one application use the internet and everything else is blocked for incoming/outgoing connections, including internet explorer...etc...

Thanks.

nope. it can't block outgoing access at all.

Ah forgot about that - thanks.

What is the least resource intensive firewall that WILL allow me to do this? I was thinking Systematic, but there maybe another?
