Just use ISA as a proxy server and packet filtering firewall then.

Loathe as I am so say it, ISA 2004 is rather impressive.

ISA will do that as will squid.

Hi all
Thank you for all the advice. Though, I find ISA a good option, I am
looking for an alternative SW that runs on Windows.

However, I would like to try ISA. Could any of you can tell me web
page which JUST says what I should do to make it secure.

Your reply is highly appreciated.

Regards
George

You can expect a comment like that from a person who has no idea what
he is talking about. ISA SERVER is NO joke. There just isnt people
with the enough knowledge to properly understand and configure ISA.
IF properly designed and configured it is an excellent sollution.
