joe/tony
tony surely has it right - and just to add to it
you can also 'add optional settings to your firewall
just by enabling these options -
log dropped packets and log successful connections
then
after you enable your icf/internet connection firewall/
as pointed out by tony
go to and click on - 'settings'/bottom of page/
note
you will see 3-tabs/services/security logging/icmp/
you won't need much else - so
go to - security logging - tab/logging options section/
and as mentioned above - click on -
log dropped packets/ and/log successful connections/
note
if you want to test it out your firewall free -
try this site - ie
