Use of filters

Hi there,

I've got ZM up and running just fine, but I'm a little confused about the use of filters. Do filters just filter out events when I'm looking at them, or can I use them to actually stop events being recorded/triggered? That second behaviour is much more useful to me - as I would like to have events trigger only between certain hours.

Is there also a way to run an arbitrary script when an event is triggered?

Thank you :-)
