It allows me to enter rules for filtering traffic. I have IDENT requests blocked (but was logging them).

If I try Gibson's Shields-Up & Port Probe he says my computers are in stealth mode.

Zone Alarm Pro on each computer blocks his leak test program.

Re the firewall rules, as far as I can tell I can block specific ip addresses & specific port accessing but I think it would take a lot of research to work out an optimum set of firewall rules re what to let through.

Most web interaction involves accessing port 80 on a remote machine then establish communications between random ports allocated between the web server & browser. The think that then gets difficult is deciding what ranges to block.
