Secure enough for what? I certainly hope that isn't the security model followed by my
bank. On the other hand it could be sufficiently secure for an apartment.
I'm not familiar with Conseal Firewall, but I assume it's some sort of NAT
implementation. Personally I'd sleep easier at night using a combination of ipfw and
natd, on either *BSD (FreeBSD, OpenBSD etc) or Linux. Using a unix box will allow you
more control with proxies, both application/stateful proxies and transparent proxies.
Good luck
