http proxy for Win2K workstation?

Is there a free http proxy that can run on Windows 2000 workstation?

I know there are several web proxy apps for Win98... can't seem to find one for NT Workstation or 2000 Workstation...

Here's a couple: I haven't used any of them so I can't vouch for them.

Probably the most widely used proxy server is Squid, but it only runs on *nix.

Here's a link to download the Trial Version of Microsoft's ISA Server. From what I've read on Usenet, it seems to be the best product. The trial lasts for 120 days.

Also, I've read that a lot of people have been having trouble with any proxy server on win2000 once they install SP2. So if you do run into that problem, just roll it back to Service Pack 1.
