I think an intro would be a great help to set-up GUFW. It is a gui after
all.  But some basic help to set up for a basic desktop situation. An
advanced set-up for desktop users: think of limiting outbound traffic
with al "list" of ports which comes with "normal" internet activity.
    53->DNS access/tcp/udp
    67,68->DHCP
    80,443->internet access, and https access
    443 -> MSN (ssl)

    1023-> Skype
    1863 -> MSN messenger) Pidgin
    5050 -> Yahoo

    5190 -> AIM/ICQ

    5222 -> XMPP (including Google Talk), jabber
    6667 -> IRC (Freenode)
    7000 en 7070 IRC via SSL( Freenode)
Optional port 43: whois server, port 11371/udp/tcp ubuntu keyserver  
8001 IRC via Ubuntu

And an intro for the use of a server based situation. Basic. For an
advanced server set-up probl. iptables is a better choice.

Title:
  gufw and a wizzard

Status in Gufw:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi!

  Is it an idea to come with a wizard for beginners to set up GUFW,  and "teach" the options within GUFW?
  Mind, beginners often have a windows background, and are very familiar using firewalls.
