Is there a way to stop a program using the interweb? I dont want a firewall however they are to much a pain in the ass. I have netlimited and the program is thee but i don't know how to stop it connecting.

i'm pretty sure that the only way is by using a firewall-type program.
edit: maybe if you could somehow find out where that program is connecting to then you cna add it to your hosts file to block it. :unsure:

Agree, use a firewall, they're not that complicated :dry:

No, im no using a firewall for a number of reasons. I have enough trouble connecting to people with my internet already and im not fucking around with anything that will mess it up. There must be a program or option in Netlimiter.....i don't know where it connects to Rosco and im sure they have multiple servers.

Netlimiter cannot set input/output below 1k so it can't block input/output completly

Yes but it only does 2-3k each time i run it, i need it STOPPED completely.

Ive said before that fw can be a real shit but after trying a few Ive found that Sygate has not caused me any problems like the others and it is really the only way to do what you want...

Yeah, Sygate's been great for me as well. I really would recommend that you put some kind of firewall on your machine.

firewall doesn't cause u problems...it is flexible enuf to ask u everytime there's a connection request
that is wat u should be using instead of netlimiter.

ugh....ffs peerzy :lol:
a firewall just may help you resolve some of those issues about connecting
because YOU tell IT what connects and what dont
it helps connections by keeping alot of windows shit from accessing bw,
or auto-updating warez from using bw,
they alert you when unauthorised apps try to connect,
usin teh net w/o a firewall....
its like bangin a two dollar whore w/o a condom IMO :lol:
hope ya got a penicillan shot handy :P

actually there is a similar prog called netpeeker that does the same as netlimiter but it also can block progs access to/from your pc , but as stated above its easier and safer just to get sygate and install it as its hassle free and easy to configure

in netlimiter simply lower the upload & download speed to 0
good luk without a firewall
