Raptor's WALL product is quite secure, and incorporates the same technology
as their full-blown Eagle software, with the only exception being that
it allows only outgoing accesses (incoming is limited to mail.)
Problem being, you mention a WWW server you want to let clients access.
The WALL, to the best of my knowledge, will not allow out->internal
web connections (which you can do via redirection with the full blown
version). So you'd have to place the Web machine outside the firewall.
Otherwise, the WALL is a good solution, and certainly secure.
