The firestartet didnt passed the GRC ShieldsUP test, because it replied to the Ping request. How can I block it?

What rules are currently in place for ICMP?
Anything else that could be impacting this, ie. a router?

it's Preferences>ICMP filtering> then tick Echo reply (pong)
i have Unreachable ticked too.
OT and rant
i think i'm going to give up computers, when i just checked my Firestarter setup i had echo request (ping) ticked from when i last needed it - about 2 WEEKS AGO :-[
