Oops... this is a classic case of RTFM. To be more precise - RTEFM ('E'
stands for "Entire"). ;-)
The manual says: "Service. From this list, select the application or
service to be allowed or blocked. The list already displays many common
services, *but you are not limited to these choices. Use the Services
menu to add any additional services or applications that do not already
appear.*"
Thus, I can now figure out a "trick" to accomplish what I want: By
default BLOCK access from ALL ip addresses (even those that I want to
access the Internet). Then, add rules that provide access to the
allowed PCs for the specific services which I *know* I am going to use.
I think this is even more secure by definition. Duh! :-)
Thanks to everyone who responded. :-D
