Can you shut it down? No. It wouldn't be much of a firewall if any piece of software could just shutdown the firewall whenever it wanted, now would it? You can add your application and the ports it listens to the firewall using the Firewall API. The documentation is found here[^]. There is no support built into the .NET Framework, so you'll have to P/Invoke the API calls. The Windows XP Firewall doesn't block outgoing connections, only incomming.
