It seems that cygwin is a unanimous answer... thanks.Cygwin is the best free (either one) option. It does suffer from one fundemental problem - it must use a "virtual screen" mode. This means that xfree opens a Windows window, and all X-Windows live inside that space.
Regards,
Commercial X-Server usually also carry an integrated mode, in which the X windows are opened as Windows windows, and the usual windows decorations are the X-Windows window manager (ok kids - see if you can count how many times the word "windows" appeared twice consecutively in this sentance :-).
Depending on your use type, you may find the later more convinent. For example, I usually ssh (via putty or other) to the remote machine, and only run more serious X applications on my desktop. Under this case, it's usually easier to be able to minimize individual X windows into the task bar. Unfortunetly, no free server allows that, that I'm aware of.

P.S.
Usually - back in the days I was using Windows. Approximately when I was still at the Technion - around 1998-2000.
