Eric,

You might take a look at products like linkdeny or servermask form 
www.port80software.com, which are designed for IIS.

Thanks for the recommendations and keep them coming. But keep in  
mind. Their infrastructure is Win 2003 + CF + IIS.

So modsecuirty and to a point iptables may not be ideal solutions.  
However, this could change as long as the disruption to their core  
business is minimal.

It shouldn't worry about outgoing, just incoming.

Didn't think Snort was for this, or other IDS type systems.
Commercial or Open Source (OS Preferred) will be considered. An
Appliance if its Commercial. We need something quick and easy.

For the problem you specified above, you could take care of with an
iptables rule using the limit flag. If your looking for a quick fix to
provide some general web application protection, take a look at  
setting
up mod-security.
