I have been given the task to find a program that disables internet access to
a group of machines but allows them to access two specific sites within the
network to do needed work anyone know of such a program or service?
 
Your request is really off topic for this news group which is related to
Windows Defender Antispyware issues. Sounds as if you need to design and
create an Intranet. Have you tried Googling Intranets?

Presumably, these are XP Pro machines?

Learn about Group Policy.

Specifically, in GPEdit.MSC, see:

User Configuration, Administrative Templates, System, Internet
communications, "Restrict Internet communication."

Now--having said all that, I want to admit that I've NEVER used group policy
for anything, and don't have the vaguest idea what that policy will really
do for you, or what else you need to do to prevent the users from reversing
it, etc--but that seems a good starting place to me.
 
Nah--scratch that--I told you I didn't know anything about this
stuff--that's useful, but not for what I was thinking!

However--group policy IS what you want to be looking at--but not that
particular policy.
That said, I don't see how to do what you are interested in. You should
probably be posting in a more general networking-related group:

You can try here:

but one related to server-based networking might be a better bet.
