Yup. Just strike two pieces of flint or chert together and watch the sparks fly. Although, it is not easy. You must strike them together hard. Really hard. Try your best to use materials that can be set on fire easy, like pieces of paper, or green tree moss, and such. Eventually, you should have fire. Then, just keep it going, until it gets pretty average sized. Then, you need to add bigger pieces of wood. Just keep going until your happy with the fire.

You can also make fire with a magnifying glass. It just has to be hot enough, and you have to get it at the right angle. You want the light shining through to be pink. You need to get it REALLY small. But, not too small. Sooner or later, you should get some smoke coming off the spot your shining it at. Oh, and you also need to have a steady hand. And also, you again, need stuff that can easily be set on fire.

I know this is MUCH more than instructions on making fire with rocks, but those rocks aren't always around. So, the magnifying glass trick is also a good thing to know.

Most rocks will melt, not burn. Some organic rocks, like amber and coal, will ignite.

There are none - unless you count pitch as a rock rather than a mineral.

What is the setting to fireproof?

That depends on the thing you want to make fireproof. Usually things come already fireproof, if they are meant to be. Most times you can not make things entirely fireproof yourself. If you meant Fireproof the movie, then the issue why you can not see it may be with your DVD player, or perhaps the disc is scratched. If you meant fireWALL and the setting for your router, then you should see your router´s manual for the optimal settings, as all routers have their own setting I can not guesswork what router you have.
