In the past their have been various windows tools to do NAT style
translations (such as WinGate) but they were generally less robust and
less versatile than Linux's native capabilities.  For example, I'm not
sure how well they do port redirects.

If you are having trouble finding a windows product to do the job why not
put a small Linux box in to do it - it could be made up from the spare
hardware that businesses often have lying around.  No need for a monitor,
etc.  A nice serial console can always be good if you do need access to
the console from time to time.

Cheers,
