Is there a utility in w2k that will allow you to kill a connection on a specfic port.
When using my software firewall I notice some sites that stay conncected even if I close my browser. I would like to kill these connections on demand if possible.

What you would need to do is figure out what application is using those ports and kill that application using Task Manager.
