My nephew just downloaded Trend Micro's PC-cillin Internet Security
Suite 2006 and set up its firewall. He went to GRC's ShieldsUp (to
http://www.grc.com/default.htm and clicked "Shield'sUp!") to test it.
ShieldsUp reported everything ok except for port 443's being open. He
can find no way to configure that port to block incoming & outgoing
packets. What can he do?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Trish

443 has to remain open for outgoing, becuase that is where
secure HTTP (HTTPS) goes, so he better not mess with that
one.
