Before Kerio became Kerio, it was "Tiny Personal Firewall", by TinySoft. Some guys took the TPF code and branched it to Kerio. TinySoft has now been purchased by CA, and you can still get TPF as the now re-labed "CA Personal Firewall 2007 http://home2.ca.com/DRHM/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayProductDetailsP age&SiteID=caconsum&Locale=en_US&Env=BASE&productID=50709000
Sadly it is no longer free like TPF was. If you can find installers for the older TPF, you can still download updates for it.
Personally I used to use TPF and later Kerio. I actually use NO firewall now, but I am also behind a Cisco 26000 router, which only has certain ports forwarded to me, and I do regular virus scans with F-Prot (a nice free virus scanner that is updated daily).

Heh, someone else who uses tiny. It's a shame they went under. (Bought out, then the firewall was gutted :\)
I still use tiny firewall pro, too bad CA won't accept my license or even offer a discount.
