How can I block the Pandora Radio App?
Pandora has a local app you can install on a PC and stream audio. How can I block this? I have blocked the actual website, www.pandora.com, on my firewall but now people have started installing this app to get around it. I want to block internet radio 100%..
download the app yourself, start streaming, go to a command prompt, run netstat -b to see what IP and port(s) it's talking on, block those in your firewall.
since it probably has multiple connection points, lather rinse repeat until it stops working altogether.
either do all that, or, if you're on a windows network, create a gpo to prevent them from running the app at all

Some more clues...the following are the dns servers for pandora and remember dns queries are udp.
pandora.com nameserver = ns-c.pnap.net
pandora.com nameserver = ns1.p20.dynect.net
pandora.com nameserver = ns-d.pnap.net
pandora.com nameserver = ns3.pandora.com
pandora.com nameserver = ns.savagebeast.com
pandora.com nameserver = ns-b.pnap.net
pandora.com nameserver = ns-a.pnap.net
ns1.p20.dynect.net internet address = 208.78.70.20
ns-a.pnap.net internet address = 64.94.123.4
ns-b.pnap.net internet address = 64.94.123.36
ns-c.pnap.net internet address = 64.95.61.4
ns-d.pnap.net internet address = 64.95.61.36
if you can stop your dns server from resolving you can still block .
cheers
