Have you tried this? The "Shields Up" scanner here, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2</a><!-- m -->, it will attempt to connect to your internet facing IP address on all the common service ports (1-1024) so you may get other popups telling you about this but it's for a good reason. Ideally the output will be a page full of green, indicating no open ports.

eneville, how would you deal with what you felt to be too many open ports?
