| | | HELP!! Windows Worms Doors Cleaner... Hi to every one!
I would like to know if I have my computer set to be the most safer possible, so I downloaded Windows Worms Doors Cleaner and took a look at the resault, and I found the following ports opened. Is this bad?? 
(save to disk for better resolution)
I made some ShieldsUP! tests that resault like all Stealth, and this should mean that its allright!
What do I have to do with Windows Worms Doors Cleaner??
Should I secure every port??
I use file sharing in a lan and use to update my software via auto-update.
I use a router and don't know wich port must or must not be closed.
Please help.
Thank you. | | | | | | |

Pay to call ScottGem for advice ($.75/min) | I took a look at your screen shot. On the screen shot there is a link to Microsoft security bulletins about those ports. You might want to read them and then decide whether to close them or not. Of the three, the only obvious close is NetBios. unless you are running a peer to peer home network with Win 9x machines, you probably don't need this open. I'm not sure about DCom and RPC, the MS bulletins should explain. |

fredg | Fred,
I'm not going to fight with you. I asked a simple question, no harassment. Instead of answering it, you attacked me. Nuff said. |

I can't add anything more then I already said. Did you follow the links and read the Microsoft articles as I suggested? |
