I'm sure many people could tell you that there is a difference between NAT
and a firewall, but if NAT is enough for you, take a look at WinRoute
(http://www.winroute.com).

There was NAT1000 from Nevod which acted exactly like Linux IP Masq.  I
still use it at home (we have a cable modem with my roommate's computer
Win98 box with Nat1000 acting as a gateway for another my Win98 and a linux
box) and it works great!  Unfortunatly, Microsoft bought the product to
integrate it as part on W2K and will release a special Win98 that will
support that new feature.  But I didn't hear from it in months...

The web site was (still is) www.nevod.com  and if you're lucky, you may
find a copy of it (30 days fully functional demo) floating around...
(search for nat1000).

Hope it will help!

Bye!
