Stop the service
start -> settings -> Control panel -> administraive tools -> services

look out for a "finger" service , double klick it, klick "stop"

are you sure a finger service is running?

Usually not. Are you _sure_ there is a finger server running?

Try to shut it down as i described in my first posting.

ok, so it seems, that there is no finger sever running. If so, there is
no need to close the port, because there is nothing "behind" it.
why did you want to close the port?
