How can I stealth ports on pc?
I installed Comodo Firewall Pro and I ran the Shields Up! firewall test and it shows all ports but six are open.I connect to internet through satellite.Does anyone know how to configure CFP to close these ports?Thanks for any help,Linda H
Answer:
There is no way that your firewall is functioning properly. Or maybe the satellite company is running you through a proxy and you are seeing the proxies ports and not your actual computers ports.
You may want to check with them and determine if they do in fact have you ran through a proxy by default. Or you can go here:

go down until you see a box that says proxy test and click on it. That will tell you if you are using one or not.
Also you can go here:
Firewall Pro 2.4 User Guide -

and get the user manual. Remember RTFM--google it!

Which ports? You need some of them to be open... For example: Internet uses port 80. Secure sites use port 443, Email uses 25 and 110. That's 4 right there that you definitely need open.
Comment:
Then your firewall wasn't running, comodo does a very good job at stealthing your computer. Make sure it's running then try it again. Best case scenario you put your computer behind a router, that will provide better protection.
