Ok, it's this Allow loopback that was ticked. I don't recall if that
was the default setting or not. But unticking it and going back to the
default ICMP settings (four items ticked) (and restarting Windows) did
the trick. It's completely stealthed.

I'm not sure about the significance of the ICMP settings. I had played
around with having them all unticked and never saw any ill effects
with any internet activities. But I'll leave them in the default with
four items ticked.

Thanks. All other settings compared. I dunno why the Allow loopback
was unticked. I just don't remember playing with that setting.
