1. http://www.fwbuilder.org/ can ben used to configure (er, build
configuration files for) firewalls, including iptables.
2. Distro's built-in method is generally preferrably, unless you're ready to

I have 2 questions. I have a laptop running Ubuntu feisty fawn to access
the internet for e-mail and surfing the net.
1) Does anyone have a favorite firewall that is easy to setup?
2) Does anyone have an easy to use gui application to control the
daemons running?
  I have had a major slowdown the last several days and now cannot
access the internet under feisty.
The last thing I installed was skype. There are a number of daemons I
don't recognize and figure stop them and put up a firewall and see what
happens before I do a reinstall.
