Switching off Windows 7 Firewall blocks all ports ?
Hi.
I'm quite new around here and would like to say hi to everybody.
I have a question to ask. If I were to stop the Windows 7 Firewall Service by right-click on Windows 7 Firewall and Select stop option, the firewall will be switched off.
In this condition, does Windows 7 block all the incoming and outgoing ports as a safety feature ?
in this condition, what if I had enabled a few ports via DOS commands ? what about them ? will they be blocked as well due to the safety feature of shutting down Windows 7 firewall ?
I request if somebody could answer this.
Thanks.
