Will had this to say:
Is there a "personal firewall" that does a good job of reporting /
filtering incoming and outgoing connections that violate the firewall
policy? A good solution might be simply letting me set up views of
the firewall log so I can view it in different ways that suit my
usage, in real time as well as historically.

After being away from the computer, I would like for example to see
just the failed incoming connections. I would like to be able to
further filter things so that certain expected connection types I can
ignore and not see in the log (e.g., port 137).

The tool gets brownie points if it can not only tell me about an
incoming RPC, but can elaborate what RPC or DCOM service was
requested.

Have you tried Kerio at all? I'll give Outpost a spin as well, thanks.
