[pchelpers] Re: Stealth Scan

If you are using Sygate, here are the instructions (and they apply to 
other firewalls too although the menus and settings are different):

(Basically it says to turn off "act as server" for all applications and 
to then make special rules for the few that need to be able to do this)

I found that here:

where there is other good info and real, live help too.
