I suggest writing your own netfilter-module that does the packet 
inspection, and if a packet matches you can simply return NF_DROP to 
instruct the kernel to drop the packet. A good tutorial/book is 
available here: http://jengelh.medozas.de/

Maybe you can do something similar with libpcap, but I am not sure if 
you can drop packets.
