For something as simple as a firewall for Windows servers, a good solution just doesn't exist.

I agree with his statement regarding Linux and IPTABLES. For my home network I run an old 350 megahert machine with Debian as a gateway and use IPTABLES and I avoid 95% of the popups and 100% of the attacks as I drop packets that are from outside to all ports. This gives my IP the appearance of most scans to be offline. This configuration cost less to deploy than most hardware solutions, the drawback is for your typical "point and click" home Windows user the deployment is more advanced.
