I agree to hammer MS when they screw up, they may be M$ (as oppossed to
the other guys that are in the business just for the pleasure) but hey,
be objective, it helps! Anyway, speaking of $ how much is Proxy and how
much is let's say Eagle Firewall? I can tell you: MS Proxy ~ 1,000$,
Eagle ~ 15,000$. 

TIS fwtk: $0
FreeBSD+IPfilter: $0
Linux ipfw: $0
Squid proxy: $0 

Everything from this list (that is far from being complete)
will give you better functionality, flexibility and security than MS Proxy.
And.. i think that ease of MS Proxy installation being compared with 
(at least) some of this products is just a myth. If you're not computer
expert you can try RedHat Linux which has all gui-based crap to do.
Another (better) solution: pay that $1K to someone who will do setup 
for you.
