Hi all,

I have done a scan port here:

http://www.nsrch.com/port_result.php

and i have taken this result:

http://rafb.net/p/KTkfMC26.html
(puerto seguro means secure port)

I don't understand at all what means when I get the info about trojans, worms and virus ...

- that means these ports are used for that porpuse ? so I have to take care, close them o whatever ?

- that means I have these ports opened ?

At my router i only have forwarded 22 115 and 80 ... so i don't understand why i get such a lot number of ports in the scanport.

Thanks for any explanation


Be happy,

I can't interpret what they're doing.

Quite different.

Althogh the port 115 should appear since I am using .. quite strange ...

Thanks.

Be happy,

You also should review your firewall configuration.

Most ports should be reporting "Stealth", NOT "closed".
