Check this out

This is the first I have read this and I was curious as I have used the Symantec Security check in the past and it has always reported port 5000 open. Anyway I downloaded and ran it and re-did the security check and now port 5000 is closed.

Since I don't know very much at all about this area - could someone please comment (pro or con) about disabling this??:confused: :confused:
 
I keep mine disabled. GRC's site pretty much explains it all.
 
hasnt microsft brought out a patch for the buffer overflow exploit???
 
cheers damnyank are there any other sites that refer to this ?
 
XP Abuser - no idea - like I said before - I just sort of stumbled across this! Sorry!
 
ive disabled the port just wanna get more info...could be a hoax?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
