I use BrazilFW (formerly Coyote). It is very user friendly and works very well on very old hardware. The only drawback is that a full sized computer, even a really old, stripped down one, takes considerably more power than a dedicated router.
If you are looking for a router that runs Linux, I've heard good things about the Linksys WRT54GL, although I've never personally used one. You can get them dirt cheap these days as well.
