ESET has some very advanced firewall with IDS controls.

IDS and advanced options in ESET Smart Security and ESET Endpoint Security

I believe you can get a very strong firewall with IDS if properly configured

@Captain Awesome Got tired of ESET's HIPS Interactive Mode? It's pretty annoying even if you set it in "Learning mode" for couple of weeks and then to "Interactive Mode" (as suggested by ESET), it still throws tons of HIPS alerts after. However in "Smart Mode" it's pretty friendly, alerting only about suspicious system events. Kaspersky is a good pick, however I would recommend 2018. version over 2017. since it is more lighter, enjoy it.

KIS don't have arp protection. Only notification to changes in DNS address
