-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I use grc.com for a quick check of my firewall. It has been accurate so far. Before I installed my firewall on 8.1, grc.com reported that some ports were closed and some were stealth. After installing the firewall, all ports showed stealth. I trust grc.com implicitly and the guy who runs the site, Steve Gibson, appears to be trustworthy. He's been interviewed on Silicon Spin and a few other shows. But, keep in mind that his site only tests a handful of the ports but it's good for a quick check. It's best to test your firewall with nmap or to find someone that you trust that has nmap and can do a comprehensive test of your firewall.
