I think godaddy.com are cheap for SSL certs. Most places you buy certs from will have instructions on how to install and and configure Apache for SSL certs, I know godaddy does http://help.godaddy.com/topic/742/article/5238 and has more instructions when you run through the cert wizard. Make sure you have mod_ssl installed and setup your vhost entry for 443 google will help you with this if you don't know how.

I normally firewall else where & use Windows Firewall for internal stuff, the Windows Firewall in Windows7 supports an ACL for inbound and outbound rules.
