That's not a firewall. That's a proxy that needs IIS and NT 4.0
to run.
Early marketing efforts by MS tried to give the impression that
Catapult was a firewall.
Firewalls are built, not added to a computer.
Next we'll have to deal with 'Steel Head', where MS tries to make
NT PCs into a Cisco-level Routers(12/2 Computer World) by adding
software over existing exposed and secret security holes.
