Hello,

I require a software firewall for Windows Server 2003 with at least
the following functionality:

- Two way control, (inbound and outbound connections).
- Authorisation by an administrator only.

For example let's say a user of the system is running a programme,
which requests access to the internet. This application has not been
allowed by an admin - the user should not be able to allow access
themselves.

I have found ISA (http://www.microsoft.com/forefront/edgesecurity/
isaserver/en/us/default.aspx), which does exactly what I need but is
expensive. I have also looked into Check Point, ZoneLabs and
SmoothWall, which don't appear to be appropriate.
Any alternative solutions much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Nick
