I see some stuff I can mess up now.
Careful what settings you de/select because you can lock yourself out. Make
sure that you disable remote admin access, unless you intend to access it
locally and set a passwd anyway. Also disable upnp.

No I meant disable mDNSResponder and mdnsd, but you don't seem to have them
there ...

Well, on my system it is kdelibs that pull it in:
# emerge --depclean -pv net-misc/mDNSResponder
Calculating dependencies... done!
net-misc/mDNSResponder-107.6-r5 pulled in by:
kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.10-r6
despite the fact that I do not have avahi and zeroconf USE flags enabled
either in kdelibs or cups:
=======================================
# emerge -pDv kde-base/kdelibs
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

They can find you. The probes show 'filtered' ports instead of 'closed'.
