Hi,

After scanning my IIS server the result showed that port 1042 is being used by a Trojan Bla1.1 how can i block the port so that no unnecessary activity is done through this port .

Also would like to know more about this Trojan and how it can harm my system.

Matter very vry urgent.

Regards

Daniel
 
Hi,

Does this server reside behind a firewall? If it does, then you need to block the port. How you do it is specific to the firewall itself.

Hi Daniel,

Can't really say as it is specific to the firewall. If it is a software firewall there is usual an piece of software to access it. If it is something like a Cisco Pix Firewall then there is a command string that needs to be put in via a terminal connection.

Hi Tony,

The problem got Solved.
I scanned for the required Security patches and applied them one by one which helped in blocking the port and the Trojan is no more seen on the system.
Thanks for ur help.
