^ if its just blocking WMP on accessing the net then you can use the firewall to block WMP, though ticking the boxes should be working >,> works for me is what i'm saying, ticking the boxes on library and privacy.

I've always used the minimal, lite install of WinAmp. During install I always disable/deselect all the online garbage and strip it to music player only, no skins, no other media, etc. For other media I have other tools (pix: IrfanView, video: MPC-HC).
I have no issues with my WinAmp installs ... they never go online, they never try, they have no need. They exist to play what is on my hard drives and obey me because I Am t3h kami-sma over them.
I lieks FooBar also. A lot. Takes some adjustment and learning, but haz powerful toolkit. Mostly I use it to populate metadata when ripping FLACs, and great for converting from lossless to *.MP3s when needed.

the secret, if you ask me, is to use an older version of winamp. (you know, the last version of the old school gui winamp, forgot the version number)
also, you stuck with winamp instead of going for foobar? is it too ugly for you or what?
