computer security/threat scan

[gravitas]

a while back someone (I think hitrack but I could be wrong) posted a link that would run a scan on your PC and identify any threats or vulnerabilities.....I've searched perb but can't find it

any assistance in finding that same link (want to to run the same scan for consistency) would be appreciated

gratzi

It should scan your computer for open ports which hackers can exploit.
Although with firewall you should be safe from outside attacks.
