    Basiclly Im looking for a way to disable it on certain pc's. Ive three pc's networked and I only want 2 of em (Mine and the pc thats connecting) To be able to use the connection. Ive toyed around a little but Im no good at networking so I was just wondering if anyone knew an easy way to do this. Im run'n XP pro and just incase it matters its 56k im talk'n bout. :(

    Is it just web-browsing that you want to disable?
    If so open a browser-> goto Tools -> Internet options -> connections -> LAN settings and select "use a proxy server" and put in 127.0.0.1 as the proxy's IP address.
    That should block it... (I think).

    for disabling all internet including email:

    on the pc that you want to not access the internet...assign it an ip address manually, ie do not use dhcp.

    Give it an address like 192.168.0.25, and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. this will allow it to access the network, but not the gateway pc.
