I DID THE TEST OF MY COMPUTER WITH SHIELDS UP AND THE TEST SHOWED THE PORT FOR THE NETBIOS OPEN--WHICH FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, IS MY COMPUTER IS OPEN FOR HACKERS TO GET INTO... I SPOKE WITH A GOOD COMPUTER FRIEND AND HE TOLD ME ABOUT BLACKICE LINK--http://www.networkice.com/ WHICH I INSTALLED AND THEN RAN THE PORT TEST AGAIN --WELLA!!!!!!!! PORTS CLOSED.. TAKE A LOOK AT THE WEB SITE ON IT AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF.. IT LOOKS LIKE IT CAN STOP THE AVERAGE HACKER..
