Astaro is a flavor of linux that uses any old pc with network cards and turns it into a full fledged firewall/router. I has everythign from Intrusion detection to simple packet filtering on a variety of OSI layers.
I jsut felt that some people might be interested in using high-grade security at home for themselves, and for free to bat.
For the 60pound license you get antivirus, spam, IDS, and spyware updates for like 3 years, and best of all the antivirus is handled thorugh kaspersky so you know it is good.
Overall, you will mgiht find it a better solution than sommothwall or clark as it is a MASSIVE product with enterprise class features and reportign and such.
as to why I am recommending it: I don't use it but have in the past, but set it up for numerous clients and they love the power that the webadmin interface gives them. Since m Norton will expire soon and sicne I have a few old pcs i nthe house I might jsut get it for myself too.
