I think Kerio is one of the most configurable firewall applications.  Partly because of this, I think Kerio is a good app to let users understand how network connections work.
I love configurable programs... I hope that I'll have some spare time to understand and learn all about network connections. You're far ahead me...

I just run the default kerio settings, though I have messed with it in the past. Since this a only a secondary firewall (for me) I dont feel the need to tweak it.

You shouldn't be using 2 firewalls.  ;D
Just as you shouldn't use to resident AV programs. It only lead to problems.

Maybe the primary is a hardware one (a router)...  ::) ???

And that's highly recommended, everyone on broadband connection should have two layers of defence when it comes to firewalls - hardware one as a first wall, and some software one as a second barrier.

Hey Tech, you asked for a firewall configuration of others. How about yours?
I would like you contribute something to this thread :P

I wish I could...
I just use the default settings of Kerio. Allowing programs (denying all Inbound connections, except for P2P applications).
I'm not felling good having to add manually all that list of rules, testing, etc.
I'm not good with firewalls, learning is the word right now. So, I've started this thread to learn  ;D

default seeings should be just fine :)
I know a many people here, used Kerio 2.1.5, and like i told, those rules adapt to kpf 4.2.2 nice.

But Kerio I think works well just as an applcation firewall.
I had to make a few rules to block 'system', what ever that is (ntoskrnl.exe) I think. Is nornal to block that if no LAN.

Heh sort of happy though i have bz packet rules.
I dont need them, i and i dont need win XP sp2 firewall too, but i love loggings

I've moved to Comodo (http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=17020.msg154397#msg154397).
After uninstalling Kerio, the following keys left behind  :(
[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-... \Software\Kerio] and tons of subkeys.
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Kerio]

But, worst, these legacy  >:(  >:(
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_KHIPS\0000\\DeviceDesc
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\LEGACY_KHIPS
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Enum\Root\LEGACY_KHIPS\0000\\DeviceDesc

I hate bad uninstallers  >:(

So that means you can use Windows XP Firewall (Since its a Hardware Firewall i think...) and Sunbelt Personal Firewall together?

No Avastforever, it is software, of course.
HD firewall is aa outside box, some may have it also on network card i think.

Kerio Sunbelt firewall just came, a new free forum on castlecops too.
