OPEN PORTS

[Guest]

I HAVE (FTP), (SMPT), AND ( HTTP) PORTS OPEN ON MY SYSTEM WHICH CAN BE
VULNERABLE TO ATTACK. ARE THESE PORTS SUPPOSED TO BE OPEN OR CLOSED. IF IT
IS SUPPOSED TO BE CLOSED HOW DO I ACCOMPLISH THIS? I AM RUNNING WINDOWSXP


Thanks, Phil

They are supposed to be stealthed.. do an online search for a free firewall,
eg Zonealarm or Sygate, download, install and run it..

Install a free firewall and dont worry about it.
