Why do you ask the same question which you asked just over 12 months ago?

And in the reply which you were given, you responded on December 12th, 2011

  Thanks. I will have to check it out. Yeah, *I think I will have to dump*
  *Guarddog soon* and starting learning a new GUI firewall program if Debian
  is going to dump it. :(

  Actually, will Debian remove my installed Guarddog later on or does it
  leave it alone? Guarddog seems to work though. I use the same firewall
  rules from my old Debian box (export and import feature).
