Malware exploiting this port: Back End, Executor, Hooker, RingZero

The HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) forms the basis for webpage transfer over the web. If open, the outer internet can view your published webpages. In the past lots of worm and virues (e.g Nimda) used this service for spreading. Especially the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) was effected. If you provide internal information only, in your intranet, then close this port. However make sure that you have installed the latest available patches!

Such intrusions should be blocked by a firewall. Do you have one? If not, I suggest downloading a free version of one of the following: ZoneAlarm, Kerio, or Outpost

how to block this port with ZoneAlarm free version? I have zonealarm but I still got this vulnerability

 

[ceewi1]

Open up Zone Alarm and go to the Firewall Tab. Make sure that Internet Zone Security is set to High.

Try running a port scan at http://www.pcflank.com/scanner1.htm (keep the default options) - it will show you which common ports are open.

The test has found that the IP address used by your computer cannot be scanned. This commonly occurs because of a firewall program on your computer and/or you are connected to the Internet through a proxy-server or your ISP uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to share IP addresses.

This means the test cannot check your system as the results of the testing would be incorrect.


now what?

I see the ZA has an advanced settings at the security level section .

Should I check the 'allow outgoing DNS/DHCP in Trusted Zone on High Setting' and allow outgoing DNS/DHCP in Internet Zone on high setting'?
