I recognized two more open ports: 3389 and 6969.
One of them is "Remote decktop access" port, so I am able to get in to my PC
from my job-it is a good news for me.I tried it and it is works!
I already opened all ports on my router: 1- 65535, so now what I have is
what is done at ISP side(Cablevision-Optimum on line). They does not wont to
open any additional ports cince I have dinamic IP and it is technical
difficult for them(they want me to switch to commertial account with high
price - more then $59.99/month I pay now).
So, I faced the reality to deal with those ports only. I already using 1032
for my web-site hosting, 21 for FTP and 3389 for remote decktop and the only
future I missing is SMTP
