Security checking website
A few years ago I used a website that checked your PC security.
One of the tests it did was check all the ports to see if they where open or responded to the test.
But for the life of me I cannot rmember what it was called, Hijack seems to ring bells, but the word 'Hijack' lists hundreds of different results

Re: Security checking website
Remember if your behind a router and not in the DMZ then it`s the router that gets `attacked` not your pc.
Allthough the leak test stuff you download tests your security.
http://www.pcflank.com/ is another similar site.

Re: Security checking website
And remember, if said router still has those default usernames & passwords then you might just be in for a Chuck Norris intrusion....... allegedly.

Re: Security checking website
If a Chuck Norris attack is on a par with his films, then you will be fine.
