Filtered means that it did not receive any packet back from the
scanned computer.
Usually happens when their is no host or the host or firewall just
drops the packet without sending back an acknowledgement.

I have been unhappy with many of the port scanners out there and I'm just
starting to learn the power of nmap.

I've been reviewing nmap scan results on my network.  If a port comes back
as filtered does that mean that it is open, closed, firewalled, or just
unknown?
