Hmm - I'm not so hot on network configuration, but I can think of a few
possible solutions...

1. Run the mud on a machine without a connection
2. Set it to use an unexpected port (not the muds normal port)
3. Put the mud behind a firewall

There may be better ways of doing it.  ( And probably are :) )
