Hello,

I hope this is not off-topic, but I have recently installed TPF
following the good advice of people here (mainly Dr Bob). I then went to
http://grc.com/ to try their test and good an almost perfect score. The
two points where it picked me up were that it detected a web server
running on port 80 and a secure server on port 443. Now I do run a web
server here as I am a web designer, but these are purely for me to test
designs. I would like to block all access to them from any Internet
traffic.

Is this a job for TPF, or is there something else I need to do to block
these ports ?

TIA
