There is only a Programs page, for those supported P2P applications.

I don't know if this is any different in the Pro version but probably not.

There is the same references (Packers and Virus pages) for all of the different providers and it looks like these have been copied into providers where this functionality doesn't exist or as I mentioned it might be that it is available only in the pro version. I don't know as I'm using the Home version.

There is no different in the sensitivity as it is a one level, all the shield have this more as a cosmetic thing  so they all look the same.

Yes, I saw that, but I'm using Pro, but I still looked at the "wrong" page ;)
