I am by no means a programmer, but i have the resources to provide a seperate secure server if necessary. This server would be a Virtual Machine on my own Virtual Host, which has a dedicated 100mbit link and is protected by a corporate firewall appliance. My preferred OS to host this program on would be Linux(distribution doesnt matter to me), since its far less consuming than windows. But if you dont think you can program it for Linux and commandline/logfile only, windows is possible.
