From the page:
"So pleased am I with the performance of this firewall, I have not
downloaded any of the Microsoft "Security Updates" and everthing works
as it should on this single user system"

Now, why would you NOT want to patch your system?
While Kerio is great, there is no 100% guarantee that it
will protect you from every single vulnerability.

Well, it has so far, together with sensible actions on my part.
I'll certainly patch the system when SP5 arrives.

BTW, my page was extremly slow to download on a dialup
connection and I did what I should have done in the first place
i.e. replace the images with links to the images.
