Yup, however I got one better on ya that would be more secure though and that is physically severing your computer's connection to the internet. Yank that phone line and cut that coax and only then will you be totally, utterly secure from the nasty threat that is the internet to your PC.

Just goes to show you can't never, ever be sure when it comes to securing and locking down your machine as best as possible.

Okay now that I am out of paranoid, sarcastic mode I do have a serious question.

Just goes to prove that ISP Port blocking is a useless and stupid process. I mean, eventually, they'll have to block all the ports. Though everything would then be secure, wouldn't it?
