UGN Security Forums UGN Security: Underground General so i have some ports

My freind and I are learning about computers right now and I found some open ports on his computer (particularly 1214-kazaa i believe) but anyways I've alot referring to using these ports for fun stuff but I can't find anything specific enough-maybe I have'nt read enough or something but i have been reading alot- but anyways does anyone have some stuff to do when you find open ports?

for kazaa, open up your web browser and type in http://<his ip address>:1214
example http://127.0.0.1:1214 this works for anyone running kazaa with out a firewall.

Read almost every page linked off this page:

And you will:
a) Learn about ports
b) Learn how to have fun with them
and finally
c) Answer about the next 40 questions you would probably have asked.

And PS, install FreeBSD/Linux and all the fun will be easier and more enjoyable!

cool and thx for the help

heres another great link i found
It lists the port, the Vulnerabilities and the attacks that are used for that port.

heres the link :

http://isc.incidents.org/port_detai...=2&percent=N&days=40&Redraw=

Theres a little box at the top left corner where u can put the port # you want the info about

If you want to find out what program is running the port check out (atstakes)-fport www.atstake.com
It will link every program that binds a port to the port
A lil snippet from my box
"660 svchost -> 135 UDP C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe
4 System -> 445 UDP
704 svchost -> 500 UDP C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe"
