Sara Granger has a good article up on Security Focus that deals with personal firewalls. There's a great References section at the end of the piece and she promises a review of different personal firewall solutions in December.
from the article...
The original firewalls, literally physical walls constructed to slow or cease the expansion of fires through buildings, performed a serious function in a basic way. Like their namesake, network firewalls were originally quite similar in concept. They were physical units blocking activity coming into and out of computer networks, thus protecting the network's users from harm.
