Hi and thanks for your helpful utility.  I downloaded the windows automatic installer version.  I did a quick scan on 
my localhost.  On the Nmap Output tab, the STATE status for each port listed is not shown.  It only says "unknown".  
Is there a fix for this?


PORT      STATE   SERVICE

7/tcp     unknown echo

9/tcp     unknown discard

13/tcp    unknown daytime

21/tcp    unknown ftp

I think this is because Windows doesn't support a SYN scan against
localhost. If you look up higher in the output, you may see a line to
that effect. It may work if you use the -sT option for a connect scan.
