With such a small site, personal firewall software on each of the computers
might be a good option too. That could work out to be pretty cost-effective
and certainly easy to install and configure. For additional security,
combine the personal firewalls with access-control lists (ACLs) on the
router or the Context-Based Access Control (CBAC) firewall feature set for
the router.

Elijah's BSD firewall looks like a good option too, especially considering
it's an intrusion detection system (IDS) too. If the customer knows some
UNIX and doesn't have money to spend, this would be a great choice.

And James, please give your friend a bit of a talking to. ;-)  Not using
firewalls in this day and age is shockingly unwise. Please have him check
all the computers for worms or Trojan horses that are busy attacking the
rest of us. Thanks.
