ipchains will allow you to specify a type after the address:
/sbin/ipchains -A input -j DENY -i eth0 -p icmp -s 0.0.0.0/0 echo-request
will stop others from pinging you (inbound echo requests).
You may want to block some additional icmp types (such as redirect), but
allow others (such as unreachable).
