Thank you, Hugh. The message didn't mention port 113, I don't think. I have XP Home. You have the same brand of firewall - mine is Linksys Broadband Series Etherfast Cable/DSL Firewall Router model BEFSX41. If yours is the same, how is it set up? (Bear in mind, I don't know a great deal about this topic).
Thanks again, -Ann Fennell

You say "...allowed the site to breach the firewall".
What was the actual message? Finding an open port is not the same as
breaching the firewall. If port 113 was detected, that's not a problem. You
can find out more by clicking the relevant port in the test results.
I don't use ZA at all as it causes endless problems on my XP Pro computer,
but my Linksys router passes the test at grc.com with a 100% rating.
