Hi, can anyone suggest a good, resource sensitive software firewall for a windows 2003 server? Something with good scalability and management (open ports for active/pasv ftp etc).

It's to be installed on a live production web server (I know a hardware firewall would be better but in this server's case I may want to go with a cheaper software option).

I'm currently using IP Filtering (opening TCP ports on a per application bases).

- Ta.
