think of it this way: you have all ports on your computer (*-655*5) closed. in order to connect to another computer, you have to send a request. it is sent through a port. you have successfully opened a port.
in order to close a port, kill the application that opened the port. or block all the traffic (incoming / outgoing) by using a firewall.
each port on your machine is described [URL=http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers]here[/URL]
like how do u do that?????
Few Steps:
*. Go to your control panel
2. Open Network Connections
*. Right Click on your Lan Connection and select Properties
4. Double Click "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)"
5. Click the Advanced button in the bottom corner of this window
6. Select the OPTIONS tab in the new window
7. Highlight TCP/IP filtering and select PROPERTIES
This is where you control all of your ports -

i dont have the lan thing
look for a "Local Area Connection" thing. you have to edit it's "Properties", then double click on "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)", then click "Advanced...", on the new window go to "Options" tab. doubleclick "TCP/IP filtering".
there they are, knock yourself out.
