am off sify and life is so good now.dunno whetheer this has been discussed before.jus outta curiosity. during my sify term, i checked with many softwares which have failed to recognize any open ports except for 25 and 110 tcp(which i suppose are for outgoing mail and stuff) and no udp.while azureus always shows that almost all ports are open and the bbimpsec allows users to open blocked ports, as in all the ports were really open!can the guru's confirm whether the ports are really open or what.
