I downloaded this months ago to see if I could modify my existing firewall.
Unfortunately, it cannot read an existing firewall configuration file and,
equally unfortunately, neither can I.

Do you know if that feature exists now?  I don't see it on their features list
http://www.fs-security.com/docs/introduction.php#features
but they may just consider that ability a "given".
