After going through the procedures in that link, the final result looks like this..

NO PORTS were found to be STEALTH.

Other than what is listed above, all ports are CLOSED.

- NO unsolicited packets were received,
- A PING REPLY (ICMP Echo) WAS RECEIVED.

What I think I'm reading is - ports 21,23 and 80 are still open even after disabling the services on your PC....and there are no Stealthed ports

A couple of things are happening -
1) Your PC is connected directly to the internet - there is no router.
2) It is the router that is highly unsecure and should be replaced.
3) We could be missing major information gaps. Such as what other programs/services are running, what are the exact pieces of equipment in place.

Suggest -
Get a very technical friend to physically check out your set up.
Pay a network pro to check your setup.
Disconnect from the internet whenever possible. Do not leave your connection Always on.

Hi stan0614,
