Newbie question, how can I close down some TCP ports?

Thanks.

You really need a firewall to do that (zonealarm etc). You can bodge it in Windows 2000 but its not worth it.

hi,

You can block some TCP-ip ports to some extend without third party software . for that in TCP-Ip properties use the TAB "Ip Security" try to work on that.
