I found another open source alternative (untested):

http://cheeso.members.winisp.net/IIRF.aspx

It works more like mod_rewrite for Apache than any others. It even emulates 
  REQUEST_FILENAME which is not available in other rewriters.

It can be configured to store the original URL in HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL on a 
per rule basis (with the [U] flag).
