ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/www.pclinuxos.com/pclinuxos/srpms/SRPMS.pclos/sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.src.rpm

64 bit:
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/www.pclinuxos.com/pclinuxos/apt/pclinuxos/64bit/RPMS.x86_64/sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.x86_64.rpm

32 bit:

I suggest you build the source as follows (assuming you downloaded the 
source):

sudo yum-builddep -y sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.src.rpm

now as non-root:

rpm -ivh sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.src.rpm
cd  { to the SPECS directory }. I assume it will be somewhere in your 
home dir.

You might want to edit the stylfilter.spec file so that the newly built 
rpm will be
named after your fedora dist release number. Not crucial.

rpmbuild -vvv -bb sylfilter.spec 2>&1 | tee sylfilter.build.out

When it finishes (successfully), it will say what it Wrote (will give 
full pathname)

If successfull, then

yum localinstall full-path-name-to-the-newly-built-stylfilter.......rpm

Good luck.
