Now that iam on adsl i wwantes to know how secure i really am.

Can someone please run a vulnerabilty scan against my host and tell me if he found something weak?

I did a scan here and it found 3 of my 4 ports opne. the last one was 4899 but it didnt show up.

Except that can one find info on the name and version of my services ruinning?

Can you also suggest a good port scan and vulnerability tool?

Thanks in advance.

There is a security scan on this website you can try. For software tools I would recommend Foundstone for Windows.

Linux:
NMap (Port scanner)
Nessus (Vulnerability scanner)

thanks but what i really need is a vulnerability assessment tool, not just a commons port scan. Is there a place that i can run this online?

That's what Nessus is.
