Dear, 

The best way of the security is implemented on its own in its Windows server 2003 .Use the MMC to open the IP security and block the ports and use just the current browsing port allowed for all users.

Instead of IPSEC, you can use Symantec firewall which is available in its own end point protection. Approximately all options with the port blocking functionality.

You can also use the ISA Server 2006 for blocking the ports and just enabling the browsing. You also can use a built in firewall for the system available. Depending upon  how much secure you want to make it.

Using the hardware physical firewall is the best way to do this. No tension of virus in server it self. Hardware firewall is reliable too much. Well the famous ones are Seagate, Juniper and Cisco.
