Well, anyone who knows what 137 is blocks it. All my routers contain an
iptables rule to block port 137. You don't want Windoze announcing
itself to the world. It's kinda like hanging out a great big bullseye
on the Internet with neon signs saying: HEY! I'M, HERE, HACK ME!!!!
As for the others, they're not yours so don't worry about them.
