Hi list,
This might not be the right place for it, but I thought maybe some of you
guys had an explanation for the following. I was playing around with my XP
box and scanned myself with the ICF in place and without.
ICF-scan:
* + 127.0.0.1
|___ 135 DCE endpoint resolution
|___ 389 Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
|___ 1720 h323hostcall
|___ 3001 Redwood Broker
|___ 3002 EXLM Agent
without:
* + 127.0.0.1
|___ 135 DCE endpoint resolution
So as I understand the functionality of ICF (default adjustments) it should
prevent every connection towards my computer unless the connection has been
established by a process on my side (ACK, SYN/ACK). But why there are more
open ports with ICF than without?
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.
Kind Regards
