Hello,

I wanted to know how to restrict a program from accessing my internet connection. Basically I have a program that constantly spends time checking for updates everytime I do any action in it and the only way to make it run in a timely manner is to not be connected to the internet. Can I lock the internet away from that program?

If you know the uhl of the website that it is accessing, you can block it in access restrictions.
