The ports you have open are Microsoft services, for a good explanation of
what they are you can go to http://grc.com/PortDataHelp.htm . This will give
you info on the ports, what they do, and how to close them. Hope this helps.

Subject: What does this mean?


Hello all,

I have a simple question and I hope to get an answer
from the experts on this list.

I have a PC running Windows 2000 Prof, and when I do
a netstat -an, I get the following:

Active Connections:
Proto  Local Addr    Foreign Addr     State
============================================

TCP    0.0.0.0:135   0.0.0.0:0        LISTENING

TCP    0.0.0.0:445   0.0.0.0:0        LISTENING

TCP    0.0.0.0:1026  0.0.0.0:0        LISTENING

TCP    0.0.0.0:1027  0.0.0.0:0        LISTENING

UDP    0.0.0.0:135            *:*
UDP    0.0.0.0:445            *:*
UDP    0.0.0.0:1025           *:*
UDP    0.0.0.0:38037          *:*
UDP    172.20.4.76:500        *:*

I get this output even when I am running no network
application on the machine.

Of course, this all seems quite suspicious.

Can somebody please help me figure out what is going
on? At least find the respective applications
listening
on various ports.??

Thanks and best regards,
