Could someone please assist me with this? I originally appended this to an existing topic, http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=51568&highlight=open+ports but haven't gotten a response.
I have had this come up the last 4-5 times I have run S&D. [now again since first posting this] More specifically:
Microsoft.WindowsSecurity.FirewallOpenPorts: [SBI $9A7550B1] Settings (Registry value, fixed)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List\12345:TCP
Every time I ask S&D to fix it, it says it does, then poof, there it is again!
After one instance I opened Windows Security and it showed that the Win firewall was on, which it should not have been as I use Comodo Firewall (v. 3.14.130099.587). I thought turning off the Windows Firewall would do the trick, but it hasn't. I did have issues with trying to update the Comodo to the new version 4 (said it couldn't complete installation) and went back to the version listed above. However, I think the first time I had this result come up in S&D was before I had to mess around with that; don't recall for sure. Anyway, the settings should be the same in the reinstallation of Comodo FW as I didn't do anything different. Any ideas what keeps causing this? Nothing else is found by S&D, just this.
oh, the OS is XP Home SP3, with all updates. Also, I use the latest free version of avast! AV and Malwarebytes and neither of these has found any malware, either.
addendum: I do notice that if I run S&D again right away, it finds nothing. It's usually a day or so later and since I always shut the computer down after each use, I'm guessing this whatever-it-is comes back after a reboot.
:hair:
