# Port 445 - This is a highly debated area by Microsoft themselves and many
others
# It's uses are discussed here: http://ntsecurity.nu/papers/port445/
#
# Method 1: Steps in Windows 2000 Professional, SP2: (Please read others
below before proceeding as this one may prevent
#
# DHCP from functioning correctly which most Cable ISPs require and some
Other ISPs too)
#
# 1.  Open Computer Management
#
# 2.  Click on Device Manager
#
# 3.  Select View:  Show Hidden Devices
#
# 4.  Click on Non-Plug and Play Drivers
#

# 5.  Open Properties for NetBIOS over TCPIP
#
# 6.  Click on Disable
#
# 7.  Reboot per prompt
#
# If you do not disable the TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service at the same time
an error will be logged to the system event log.
#
# You can Disable this service in Administrative Tools - Services if desired
as detailed below.
#
# Alternate Procedure:  The following information was developed, tested, and
supplied by T-1 (t1at_private)
#
# Go to :
#
# HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters\

#
# Value Name: TransportBindName
#
# Data: \device\
#
# Either Rename TransportBindName to something like TransportBindNameX
(Easier to change back later)
#
# Or Delete \device\
#
# Then Reboot.
#
# The Registry tweak is more flexible because the NetBT driver is allowed to
run
