Windows, windows firewall software etc,
doesn't call it 'hardening'.
  Norton Firewall.
  I really am at a loss to explain that Nortons product and yours 
are going in the same direction... but have quite different names.

I'm just trying to suggest that your docs might tell the reader early 
on that 'this does what Norton firewall does in Windows'.
  It may not be as simple as that,
but the end game is the same?

Can anyone else help me?

Wizard type approach?
  Select one from two
   Install basic or 'get complicated'
I.e. an option for the idiot/non-aware user?

I'm taking the part of the windows user finding this funny Linux beast
on my screen!!!!
