Why, after belonging and subsrcibing to WinITPro do I now have to pay for another subscribtion, SecurityPro VIP, to get information on a particular topic? I realize it's about making money but this is an unprofessional way to go about it. I should not have to pay extra or for another subscription! Yes I want to read more of the article but why do I have to pay for it AGAIN!
Please resolve this mess. John

Excellent article! i agree with the author, Port Explorer is hard to beat so its my favourite, i also use the Diamondcs OpenPorts console program as its far better than netstat. Port Explorer is the only one that also lets you packet-sniff both ports and also individual processes, as well as close ports

The article is quite good. But it would have been of much use to me if the technique behind such active process identification techniques could be elaborated.

Another tool I find to be most useful (and free / adfree) to achieve maximum security is StopListening (www.nonebar.com/sl.html).

Excellent read BTW. Jason

I totally agree with itibi's comments on CurrPorts. I love it. No installation and gives you everything you need.

The Best of the best utility of this category is missing:
NirSoft CurrPorts !

http://nirsoft.mirrorz.com/

CurrPorts displays the list of all currently opened TCP/IP and UDP ports on your local computer. For each port in the list, information about the process that opened the port is also displayed, including the process name, full path of the process, version information of the process (product name, file description, and so on), the time that the process was created, and the user that created it.
In addition, CurrPorts allows you to close unwanted TCP connections, kill the process that opened the ports, and save the TCP/UDP ports information to HTML file , XML file, or to tab-delimited text file.
CurrPorts also automatically mark with pink color suspicious TCP/UDP ports owned by unidentified applications (Applications without version information and icons)
