That's generaly impossible... a normal build of snort _cannot_ block 
packets.. it has no ability to do so.

Are you using a flexresp enabled build of snort? snort-inline? snortsam?

If all three are no, then you've got some other problems.

Perhaps the pcap library you have is somehow incompatible with your setup?
