I tried this, and it reported my ports as being "Stealth":

GRC Port Authority Report created on UTC: 2006-02-02 at 02:01:42

Results from probe of port: 4662

    0 Ports Open
    0 Ports Closed
    1 Ports Stealth
---------------------
    1 Ports Tested

THE PORT tested was found to be: STEALTH.

TruStealth: PASSED - ALL tested ports were STEALTH,
                   - NO unsolicited packets were received,
                   - NO Ping reply (ICMP Echo) was received.


Further, it said: "Not a single packet — solicited or otherwise — was 
received from your system as a result of our security probing tests. 
Your system ignored and refused to reply to repeated Pings (ICMP Echo 
Requests)".


This is despite having opened the ports on my router.

Does this mean my IP is blocking the ports?
