One of the many dangers asking Linux people windows questions. Depending on the version of windows you should have the ability to filter out ports through your network control panel applet. In Windows NT/2000 for example select "TCP/IP PROTOCOL". Select properties for it. There should be a button labeled "Advanced". From there there is a section in which you can filter out ports. There are two options here basically. You can open and allow all ports to go through or shut it down completely and allow only specific ports which you must populate. Normally I run a firewall as was mentioned. I hardly ever run a windows computer on the internet these days without a personal firewall of some kind (WINRoute is a good one I recommend). You can download WINRoute from www.download.com I believe (or was that www.shareware.com). Currently I'm upgrading my MCSE to windows 2000 (Need to say it sux with authority ok :grinz:). There is a section under Administrator tools called "router access" or something like that which "should" also allow this. But again, it all depends on what version of windows you have. Good Luck!
