Kerio Personal Firewall
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.
Versions 4.2.2 and prior are FREE for home and personal use.



The #1 Firewall Choice of IT Pros.
Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall is the Windows IT Pro Readers' Choice Award winner for best desktop firewall! It was also the least expensive firewall among the top three contenders, proving that affordability doesn't have to compromise quality. SKPF4 offers the hacker-proof security of a leading firewall for half the cost of the competition.
About the Windows XP Firewall...
The Windows XP firewall gives many people a false sense of security. Unlike SKPF4 and other leading stand-alone firewall software, the XP firewall does not block information going out of your PC. The bottom line: Your credit card numbers, passwords, account information and more could be sent from your PC to a hacker, without the XP firewall even detecting the breach.
A Great Replacement for Sygate.
If you're looking for the free Kerio Firewall or a replacement for the Sygate firewall, you have found the right page. Just like the original, the Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall will keep working after the first 30 days, but in basic mode.
