Kerio Personal Firewall 4.1.1.0 Beta 5

Advertisement (Why?)

Kerio Personal Firewall (KPF) helps users control how their computers exchange data with other computers on the Internet or local network. Kerio Personal Firewall is a necessity for all desktop computers connected to broadband Internet, using DSL, cable, ISDN, WiFi or satellite modems. Within an organization, Kerio Personal Firewall prevents a single computer from attacks initiated by internal users. Remote workstations and laptops running KPF are protected from Internet born attacks.

What's New:

Windows 98 and Windows ME support
fixed several BSOD crashes
added stateful inspection for all IP protcols (not only TCP/UDP)
predefined VPN rule now works for MS VPN

Dice says: No wonder! It's not a surprise Nintendo will make double the profit. They hold best status for handheld gaming, and quite possibly for consoles as well. Gamecube leaving out the DVD Player feature boosted sales dramatically because of the price differences between Xbox and PS2 compared to Gamecube. People want to save money! The DVD feature should always be an OPTION, if you don't want it then you shouldn't have to pay for it. Plus with the largest collection of games, Gamecube and handhelds such as GC and GBA just seals the deal.

I don't think your going to find a 'no overhead' firewall. Got to be some slow down to check all the programs trying to access the net.

(Waiting for the "X firewall rocks" 'X Firewall sucks because it's slow / bloated / eats up memory / disses my mom but Y firewall is cool' discussions)

If that sort of discussion didn't go on what would be the point of the comments feature?

(except for the last one of course)

I was using this until I found some flaws, strangely enough kerio seem to have gone backwards since 2.x on some key firewall functions.

It denies instead of drops meaning ports aren't stealthed.
Custom Rules are much harder to setup for example they are read differently to app rules and app rules always seem to take priority so its a bit confusing on how to order the rules whilst kerio2 is more like simple rulesets where the first rule to match applies.

Now that's a useable comment. I was set to download Kerio and try it but will wait to see if others experience the same problem.
