I think the setting should be "-:+192.168.0.0" since the "192.168.0" isnt a real IP LAN address. However, you should consider using a firewall if you want "real" security since there are several tools and progs that can "spoof" a internal IP adress. I can recommend ZoneAlarm as a simple but yet customizable firewall for Windoze.
