ISA does stateful inspection.  You didn't say that it doesn't do it, but it 
was implied in your message.  The product is also highly extensible.  I 
haven't worked with it yet, nor have I seen results from any tiger team 
attempts against it, but on paper it stacks up to Raptor and CheckPoint.

For my money I still like Raptor.

Raptor and Checkpoint do "True stateful packet inspection", they do not
just look at the ip addresses (please feel free to correct me).  Raptor
has great filtering, rules, subnets, reporting, intrusion detection, and
other add ons such as Power VPN.  ISA may be good for a small shop with
not a lot to protect but I would go for Raptor or Checkpoint if you want
above average protection and reporting. Reporting is the key.
Everything in Raptor is logged and can be emailed to you.

Does anyone have working experience with Microsoft ISA server? Can this
product be considered as a serious firewall solution in a production
live environment? Is there any information on comparing Microsoft ISA
server with other firewall solutions such as  Checkpoint or Netscreen or
Cisco PIX?

Thanks
Sean

Does anyone on these lists have experience with using Index Server on
Directories that are created at run time, not indexing directories on
the HD?

Can you recommend some beginner articles or samples?

Thanks!
