Hi,
Installed the Firewall last night.
Encountered the Kerio Firewall Stand By problem this morning & solved
the issue.
Since it's being discussed on many forums for so long without a
solution, I am posting the solution here, hope it helps.

Within Kerio Keep the next button checked: Start Firewall
Automatically on Windows Startup.
Under Device Manager click View & than Show Hidden Devices.
Under Non-Plug n Play Drivers right click on Kerio Personal Firewall
Driver and than click Properties.
Under the Driver Tab Select Automatic from the drop down menu under
startup.
Reboot your computer.

Best regards - YARON DRUKMAN.

Explanation: boot devices comes first and than system devices.
Switching from System to Automatic makes Keiro load only after both
the boot devices and the system devices are up & not immediately after
system devices are loaded.
