OSSEC runs on windows as well.  It does require you to edit a xml config

Micro's Deep Security product along with several other features for host
based security.
http://www.ossec.net/    (I have no idea why they chose a .net for the
project)

Because they weren't a .edu, they weren't a business so a .com
wouldn't have been appropriate and they weren't a random organisation
so a .org wouldn't apply.

The project is significantly older than any business affiliation they
have, .net was the most appropriate TLD for them to join.
