I'll post with the caveat that I don't actually use Trisquel (although I do use Debian so pitchforks and torches down please). The Trisquel kernel will have firewall capabilities, configurable through a program called iptables. How familiar are you with GNU/Linux in general? If you're

Alternative to thinkpenguin would be Tehnoetic (https://tehnoetic.com/tehnoetic-wireless-adapter-gnu-linux-libre-tet-n150). They're based in Romania so might be cheaper shipping. That being said I bought the wireless G adapter from thinkpenguin a while ago and it was shipped from their UK

Actually, ufw isn't a graphical tool. It's a command line frontend to iptables. If you want a graphical tool, you probably want something like gufw (all are available in Trisquel repos)

Trisquel (and Debian, which I use) don't come with a firewall controller installed by default. The reasons why have been debated here many times before, so don't hope for that to change anytime soon. What I do is, I have all the Debian CDs and so I install the first one, and before I connect

There is a SSH server installed by default, you might want to get rid of that if you don't have use for it. Besides that you can forget about a firewall really. NoScript is a very good idea.

It would be helpful if you could provide more information, like the type of file system (ext2/ext3/ext4/ntfs/what?) and exactly in what way you're renaming it. (For example, is it a change or case or what?) Details matter. In some cases, for example, if the name is only a change in case you
