Just browsing through Emisofts Hijackfree and found those 2 problems.

http://analyze.hijackfree.com/analyze/details/?type=port&name=1029

Now I am not sure if they are False positives or not but anyone know how I would find out for sure.

Just Downloaded Eset Smart Security on Wednesday and using there firewall.So not sure if it is there Firewall or Windows firewall where the problem lies.

I know very little about Firewalls so not that sure where to start.

If as I suspect these are nasties and this suggests they are, trojan port List, how do you manage to get so many problems, I cannot remember the last time I got anything unpleasant on my PC and I only use two anti programs + firewall and I download quite a bit via U torrent (legal stuff) yet I only scan my PC when I get a nag screen and of course after downloading something and yet I get nothing. Puzzling.

Chronus

Not sure if they are problems or not as Emisoft never warned me of any when running scans I only found them when looking through their Hijackfree program.

I did run another scan from another program which said all my ports were locked and Ok.

This is what i get when i open Hijackfree and go to, Open local ports.

When opening the first problem file I noticed a log from TDS Killer So not sure if it is showing that as the problem.
