tiredoflogins Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Why is a port scan attack? I am using Sygate personal firewall and it keeps on shouting that there is a port scan attack.I usually block the attack. It tries to access MSTask.exeCheers,Mr Tired.

egrath Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Hi,a Portscan is not to be threatened as a attack directly. Someone is just probing what ports your System has open (A port is a Network I/O Interface where a Programs listen)Bye, Egon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
