ipfw show is telling you that you have one firewall rule which denys 
everything from everything-- hence when you ping anything you get the 
error.  You should add to /etc/rc.conf

firewall_enable="YES"           # Set to YES to enable firewall functionality
firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall" # Which script to run to set up the firewall
firewall_type="OPEN"            # Firewall type (see /etc/rc.firewall)
firewall_quiet="NO"             # Set to YES to suppress rule display
firewall_logging="YES"          # Set to YES to enable events logging

as you have it defined in your kernel.
then do an 'ipfw show' and compare the output.

this tells you that you have as kernel modules, linux, screensaver and rtc 
loaded and not statically compiled into your kernel.
