If a packet arrives from a networks via a static route all firewall rules are ignored. Everything passes. :-( If the Packets arrive via the default route it works as expected.
Packets don't arrive 'from' a static route; the static routes only affect outgoing traffic. Incoming packets will arrive on an interface and have a source and destination (end machine) address that you can use to filter them. As long as the rule is created on the *interface* the traffic arrives on, and has the appropriate filters set, it should apply to any traffic regardless of routing tables. Same goes for outgoing traffic destined to other routers.
Is this not what's happening? If not, can you give us more information (what interface it arrives on, what you want to block and address and rule details), as your rules probably just need some tweaks.
