I wouldn't say Smoothwall is bad, either.  IPCop is a fork of
Smoothwall, therefor they have quite a bit in common.  Most people
prefer IPCop because you get everything for free.  With Smoothwall,
you get the basics, and harassment to "upgrade" anytime you ask for
help.  I'd classify that as a problem with the people behind
Smoothwall, not the software itself.
