Question : Recommend a firewall.

Hi all,
      Could someone please recommend a cost effective firewall for a Windows 2000 server? The server in question acts as mail server, proxy server and file server for an office of 7 Windows 2000 professional boxes.
      This box is important to the business, so I would really like to secure it a bit.

Thanks in advance.

Then don't rely on a software package on a Windows server. Windows Security is an oxymoron.

If budget is that tight, get yourself a little Linksys, D-Link, watchguard firewall or something for $50 - $100 USD
Anything but software on your server..
How about a linux box? Can you scap together an old PC or something with 2 NIC's in it? Linux is free and so is the firewall software (ipchains)..
