Well, you are both right.  You have a default policy you can set, 
which should be set to deny; something like:

ipfwadm -I -p deny

You can then set whatever policies you want and the last one you set is 
another deny policy; so that you can log what is being denied.  i.e. 

ipfwadm -I -a deny -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D 0.0.0.0/0 -o
