Just my 2 [INSERT CURRENCY HERE] worth regarding port 80 open - very often i will nmap from certain hosts to new boxes I have put on the big bad net and port 80 will sometimes be open. A further scan a bit more verbose nearly always shows me a NetCACHE device en route - a simple scan internaly [and obvioulsy netstat for *NIX] reveals no problems.

This shouldn't cause a problem - although I only get it when I scan from certain hosts.

[just tried a couple of scans and no port 80 to show you :(]

:wq!
