There's no point in downloading the new version of Kerio anymore, they ceased development of it and will only support it this year. If you want the best (free) version of Kerio, search for version 2.1.5. Doesn't have a pretty GUI like Zone alarm, but if you want control out of a software firewall its good. :)

To update you Kerio was bought out by sunbelt software and they are putting out the same identical fw so as not to screw up a good thing like zone alarm did. The kerio personal fw comes in 1 version. It comes in the full version! If you do not purchase a key withinin 30 days then it drops some web privacy features that most can live without and the whole rest of the firewall stays functional as long as you use it.
Sunbelt is offering a introductory pricing of 14.95 for kpf and the next years renewal is 9.95. Needless to say i dumped the free version and jumped on this immediately.
