Block outgoing application without a firewall?

In XP, is there a way to block an application's outgoing internet connection without using a software firewall (e.g. Windows Firewall, Comodo, ESET, etc.)

I tried the hosts file but the application's outgoing connection is IP and not a URL so it didn't work.

I also tried a little software called nonet but it didn't work.

Any other ideas?

* Just in case you're wondering why I'm refraining from using a third party / stock firewall, I just don't.


Nevermind.
