I just wanted to mention the bugs #48 and #355 (today is Dec. 5, 2005) but they'll probably be solved soon. (logging doesn't work when L7-blocking was activated)

And I think an explanation of the "P2P" "L7" "UDP" "TCP" "UDP+TCP" differences would be great. As I understand it, UDP and TCP blocks everything. L7 is a layer 7 - i.e. application layer-blocker that analyzes the packages to see whether it's for example filesharing stuff. But I don't know what "P2P" is for. I also don't know, whether or how one can create own L7 filters.

And I find this "Policies are processed in order. This is an important item to remember when creating Deny policies." sentence confusing. I woudl have expected that "processed in order" would mean, that a rule in the 2nd slot can "override" a rule in the 1st slot.
