Do you have your PWS running? Those were the only ports that showed up as
open. Port 135 isn't tested with the "Stealth scan," but I suspect any port
that is in use will show up.

"Not fully protected" can just mean closed but not stealth.

>Hope you find out and tell us.

I had to add specific rules to block HTTP Server ports. I had an "All TCP"
rule to block anything not defined in another rule, but that wasn't enough.
So for example, I have:

HTTP Client
Source: My IP
Destination: Any IP
From: Any port
To: Port 80
Permit

HTTP Server
Source: My IP
Destination: Any IP
From: Port 80
To: Any port
Block

Both are "mirrored." I figured out that that was necessary for two way
communication, like sending web pages.
