How to block a port in 7?
How do you block a port in 7?
Ok I dont know if this will work in win7, but from this site: General Networking/Lan/Wan: port blocking, tcp ip ports, network dialup
instructions are to do the following:
You can easily block any TCP/IP ports you wish. In Windows 2000 or Windows XP:
1) Start... Settings... Control Panel... Network & Dialup Connections
2) Right-click on the network connection (usually this will be Internal LAN) and select Properties.
3) Select TCP/IP, click Properties, then Advanced
4) Select TCP/IP Filtering then click Properties. Click the "Enable TCP/IP Filtering" check box, then select the ports you want to filter or allow.
Here is a bonus link that tells you a ton of great background information on TCP/IP ports:

Well I'm always being attacked via Port 1434. And the information for blocking ports in win 7 is unavailable. I can't find it anywhere, not even in Microsoft answers. So, I thought one of the Boffins (love that word) here, would know how to block a port in 7, win7 that is.
Sorry I don't make myself clear as I have hard trouble explaining myself. It's hard for you lot to understand me I know but I'm not to good with the English language. I was very bad at it in school!
