The built-in Windows firewall seems to only block incoming ports, but not any outgoing traffic.
I am looking for an application to install on an xp machine which can be configured a way to block all outgoing connection attempts.
I want to still allow incoming connection attempts on a few ports for testing.
Huh, should be possible to block all outgoing traffic according to this answer: How to block all traffic but one IP in Windows Firewall?

I don't think there's actually a way to (as) easily block all outgoing traffic with XP's firewall, but there may very well be? I don't have an XP machine handy to check. – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2011-10-08T19:05:52.133
Ah, but then again, this is Windows XP – can anyone confirm this is the same? @techie007 Hah, hivemind. – slhck – 2011-10-08T19:05:57.783
Pretty sure there is no way to do it in XP. Please suggest a 3rd party application which works for this purpose. – steampowered – 2011-10-08T22:08:46.087
