SHELLCODE Attacks

["Naman Latif" <naman.latif () inamed com>]

Hi,
I am a newbie to Intrusion Detection and confused that why in the
default Snort.conf file, the following parameter is used

+++++++
# Ports you want to look for SHELLCODE on.
var SHELLCODE_PORTS !80
+++++++

Does that mean that no SHELLCODE attacks exist for port 80 ?

Regards \\ Naman
