I need to know how you close a port. I know its open because i got it scanned and so on.....I want it shut. Even after re-formatting it is still open. Is this normal? Also i have reinstalled my firewall and it has been blocking a certin someone every ten mins. I have the ip address and the port # . What can i do with this info? I want them to know I know they are the buggers that have been skrewing up my system.
