go to ur routers GUI in where it may look like anything but generally there is a tab called ‘block services’ here you define the paramters of what to block, from who, and at what times,, services are usually blocked by the port # they use but common services can be defined by name like FTP or HTTP ,, so u would need to know which ports these programs function on… to block for one specific computer u specify the IP of that PC and make it a static IP so it wont change when DHCP decides the lease is up,,, or u can define the PC by name IF u have a working internal DNS set up that ur router recogniZes..
