No need to apologize, but vague questions tend to get vague answers. There are plenty of mechanisms for load balancing, using either hardware or software solutions. You're looking for something that lets you balance web servers, not application servers. If you're using Windows and IIS, some versions of Windows Server include software-based load balancing. If you're using some other environment, it may or may not include software-based load balancing. In any case, without CF Enterprise, you won't be able to provide session failover. But you can use any standard load balancing stuff to provide simple load balancing no matter what application server you're using.
