Are you asking for a Windows-native UI to SNORT? Please clarify..
If you are specifically asking for just a GUI frontend to monitoring
SNORT alerts, and are /using/ Windows as your Operating System.

Only the latter currently exists, well, unless.. Never mind I had the
perfect opportunity for some vendor posturing there but I'll save this
list the agony :).
Go for Demarc.. It's superb for satisfying that gui desire for SNORT
management. It also has other builtin features for monitoring local
system services as well as pushing new SNORT rules and configurations to
remote SNORT sensors.

Yeh, I could mention ACID and the so many other options out there..
But.. Meh, Demarc deserves the spotlight on this one.

Cheers!
