there are no native tools for linux to block access to the Internet on a application by application basis. no firewall or any other gui way for noobs like myself that notifies the user that application it accessing the Internet. nothing that tells you that a port is in use or if information is being transmitted.

sure you can block the port that an application uses.
but there is no way to find out what application is using what port or when
unless you are logging everything and can find out after the fact.

for a noob this would allow untold amount of spyware to get out from wine.
