i'm not a windows user, looks like i can't supply you with exact 
parameters needed to filter a connection to your quake2 server

every reasonable firewall should have a possibility to filter specific 
address/port range, try using these params when filtering incoming 
connections:

port: 27910
protocol: udp
ip address: you should have it already

in linux's iptables it'd look like this:

/usr/sbin/iptables -I INPUT -p udp -s ip_address --dport 27910 -j DROP

it should be similar in your firewall program

regards
