The original request was for a firewall on a Windows Server, I believe
ZoneAlarm would be the answer. It would be the wrong answer, but it is the
answer. I have a great hesitation in recommending Firewalls on servers, it
can interfere with to many things, and by the time you open the ports to
make your server work, you might as well not have a firwall.
For a free single floppy or CD firewall that is free (and not in German) you
could try the Bering distribution from the www.leaf-project.org site. Just
add a 486 or up, 2 NICs and a floppy drive (CD Optional).
It has an extenseive install guide and a VERY active support list. I use an
earlier distribution of the project myself for a number of sites. The first
version was installed in 45 minutes from the instructions. I had never used
Linux at that point.

This Firewall is for free: http://www.fli4l.com
Sorry, but it's in German (but the Linux scripts are the same).
I use a 3/86 DX2 PC with 64 MB RAM, 2 netwok-cards (one for DSL and one for
nthe network), no HDD necessary!
All you need is knowledge in Linux!
Good luck,
