Any way to find out their urls?

Well, that depends - if Shareaza uses IPs to connect to, it's impossible to block using a hosts file, since it never bothers to look up the named hosts anyway (like mediaforge01.mforge.net or whatever). I could see why it won't do this because all those DNS lookups would certainly slow Shareaza to a crawl.
You could block separate IPs with a rule-based firewall though.
