About the best firewall for a Windows machine is to sit it behind a properly firewalled and configured Linux gateway!
You could try the built in Windows Firewall with XP - which has been "enhanced" in SP2.
But you know microsoft, they'll release a firewall patch next month, and then a patch to the firewall patch, and then a patch for the patched firewall patch, etc, etc.
cheers

firewalld.conf
FIREWALLD.CONF(5) firewalld.conf FIREWALLD.CONF(5)
NAME
firewalld.conf - firewalld configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf
DESCRIPTION
firewalld.conf is loaded by firewalld during the initialization process. The file contains the basic configuration options for firewalld.
OPTIONS
These are the options that can be set in the config file:
DefaultZone
This sets the default zone for connections or interfaces if the zone is not selected or specified by NetworkManager, initscripts or
command line tool. The default zone is public.
MinimalMark
For some firewall settings several rules are needed in different tables to be able to handle packets in the correct way. To achieve
that these packets are marked using the MARK target iptables(8) and ip6tables(8). With the MinimalMark option a block of marks can be
reserved for private use; only marks over this value are used. The default MinimalMark value is 100.
CleanupOnExit
If firewalld stops, it cleans up all firewall rules. Setting this option to no or false leaves the current firewall rules untouched.
The default value is yes or true.
Lockdown
If this option is enabled, firewall changes with the D-Bus interface will be limited to applications that are listed in the lockdown
whitelist (see firewalld.lockdownwhitelist(5)). The default value is no or false.
