talk , no action in thread.zonealarm not exist ubuntu here other ways control network access.

stop program accessing network:
# install sux,create new user bob,set network rules him , run gedit (or whatever program shoud stopped) bob
sudo apt-get install sux
sudo useradd bob -c "example user bob" -d /home/bob -m -s /bin/bash -g users
sudo iptables -a output -m owner --uid-owner bob -j drop
sudo sux bob gedit

stop programs accessing network except one:
# create new user bob,set network rules bubba (thats me) , run gedit bob
sudo useradd bob -c "example user bob" -d /home/bob -m -s /bin/bash -g users
sudo iptables -a output -m owner --uid-owner bubba -j drop
sudo sux bob gedit
