port 12345-12346 with Sygate SPF5.0

I've a problem with Sygate PF 5.0 r1150,
with a port scan I find all ports stealthed, but the ports:
12345-12346 only "closed".

Really annoying the fact that the Sygate scan (http://scan.sygate.com) considers those ports "blocked", while other scanners (pcaudit.com, pcflank.com) only "closed".

Moreover I can't see on the packet log the packets to port 12345 and 12346.

Could someone with Sygate SPF5.0 tell me if this is normal or not?
I've scanned my system for Netbus but I've found anything.

 

I don't use Sygate, but I don't think thats normal.
If you use NT, 2k, or XP(I think) you could download Active Ports from Webattack and see if some program is using those two ports.

There are a couple of other trojans that use those two ports besides NetBus. It's worth investigating further.
You might also see what Kalish says. It checks 12345.

I assume you checked to make sure they have been getting the right IP for you when you get scanned.

 

Your test says 12345 is stealthed, but I still can't see in the sygate packet log the packets destinated to 12345.
Very difficult to say what's happening, maybe a new trojan that intercepts packets before SPF.

Test complete.

Number of stealthed ports = 97.

I've tried removing the SYGATE SPF, (even from the startup), then I've installed KERIO 214, just to see if the firewall was the problem.
However, anything new, the 12345-12346 still result "closed" as you can see below, and I continue to be unable to see 12345-12346 packets, even in the log of KERIO!
Maybe my system has been corrupted...

We have determined there are no open Trojans' ports on your system. But following ports we scanned are non- stealthed: 12345, 12346.

Although these ports are non-stealthed, they are not open, so your system is not infected. However, having non- stealthed ports on your system means your computer can be "seen" over the Internet. This makes your system a potential target for remote attacks.

Recommendation:

The absence of a Trojan horse on your system does not mean this problem cannot happen, of course. Anti-virus and/or anti-Trojan software should be installed and used on your system. If you already use this type of software on your system, its virus definitions (virus database) should regularly be updated. If you have a firewall, check if it is set to make all your computer ports stealthed.

 

Is it possible you ISP is using a proxy?
What is your OS?
Did you try Active Ports?
Are you on a network or small lan?
You can also download StartupList, and look for strange entries starting up.

There's a reason for those ports not being stealthed or the port scanners are wrong.

 

Finally, I've found the reason, it wasn't a trojan, instead only a problem of my current provider, that was blocking packets addressed to 12345-12346 ports, and I was unable to receive any datas from these ports.

A week has been needed to solve the matter.

The conclusion is that the PCFLANK.COM advanced port test is the best around...
