Any of the stock Linux firewalls will work for 'both Linux and Windows.' 
  Smoothwall, ipcop, Coyote...

Depending on the services offered, you can get by with such a low end 
machine, but running things like snort along on the same box is going to 
require more hardware/memory.

It really makes no sense to have firewall software running on 2+ 
machines if they all have access via the same connection.  One firewall 
to protect them all. :)

If you really want to get into it, get Bob Toxen's book and build your 
own. :)
