Subject: [SECURITY] host based firewall for windows 2003 server?

Windows 2003 built-in firewall only blocks incoming traffic and don't do
much logging and alerting. We are looking for a firewall to install on
Windows 2003 server to control  and monitor its outgoing and incoming
traffic. A lot of googling didn't show many products, and none of them
really stand out or have much review about the products.

Does anyone know or use any third-party firewall on Windows 2003 server that
can control, monitor and alerting (via email or log to the event log) its
outgoing and incoming traffic?

Thanks!
