Does anybody know how one could go about disabling HTTP traffic on Port 80? I am looking for a way to do this with a Delphi component, or a 3rd party piece of software.

The problem I am trying to solve: Outlook's Browser that Microsoft has so conveniently added to their mail client, which does not have any referance via the Object Model. If I could somehow control the Browser via Object model, this would be no problem.

So what I would like to do is write a dll in Delphi that I can hit with a script, which would turn off HTTP traffic on port 80 immediately before I launch Outlook. That way the Broswer will not work in Outlook.

Thanks,
Rob

I dont think you could do that as launching outlook will probably open the port again, and get the browser back up and running.

Everyone has a right to my opinion.

You could try using ZoneAlarm. It's a free firewall, and when an application tries to open a port so it can act as a server, ZoneAlarm will ask you whether that's ok. You say no, tick the box to indicate not to ask again, and the port will stay closed.
