To enable / disable a target

The Enabled checkbox, present in all targets, indicates if this target is active (enabled) or not. This feature is convenient if you make use of the "apply to all targets" feature in filters. Rather than modify multiple filters, you can simply de-activate or re-activate filters by clearing or checking the checkbox.
