listen on a port. maybe with CSocket. and let the packets go to the app, if they are correct (I think you know how fw works). But I don't know, how should be done, that something listenes on some port end you wann give between it and outta world your fw (if running on the some pc). Packets going out - I see no problem in it. Please let me now about your progress. (nakor@pobox.sk)

What exactly do you want the firewall to do? The answer to that will greatly affect the answer to your question - as there is much funcitionality that is not "needed" by firewalls.
