A bigger disadvantage is that it's not host based, which is what the 
O.P. was asking for.

Graham,

WIPFW can operate both in a router and non-router mode i.e. 
host based fw.

Yes, as long as your host is BSD!  I don't think Vuong wants to
migrate from win2K3 to freebsd just to take advantage of the
host-based firewall :-)
