Blocking Outgoing ports

How do I block outgoing ports ?
My XP firewall blocks everything inbound that I dont want to get through (well I hope anyway) but I'd like to be able to block specific outgoing ports as well.
Any ideas ?

Hi,

You would need 3rd party software to do this as there is no configuration in
XP to block outbound traffic

The XP firewall does not do this.
You can use IPsec in addition to the firewall for this type of
control, for acquire a third-party firewall product.
