I would think geting a good firewall, there are a few out there that stealth's your ports would be better. Cant hack what they cant see. And too many of these port "watchers" end up opening ports, not saying that this program does that but if a hacker does scan your computer and see a bunch of open ports he is more likely to be back than if he dosent see a thing.

I dont know how that program works so it may not open ports but just something to keep in mind
