Firestarter

Hello.

As the Firestarter project appears to have been abnadoned and the
Firestarter firewall application appears to now be unsupported, due to
the project having apparently been abandoned, I am wondering whether any
similarly easy to use graphical firewall utility exists for Linux.

Before installing Firestarter, about a year ago, I had been using
Smoothwall Express 2 (I had been unable to upgade it), but when I had to
replace the firewall, I could not get Smoothwall Express 3 working - it
was simply too difficult (Hey, that's an interesting use for a now
apparently obsolete acronym; STD = Simply Too Difficult).
