[Cripple]

I got all ports secure (Zone Alarm)

Also all the viruses were found (AVG Free)

So my laptop is pretty much 100% Secure

Cripple.

Dang, I have 7 ports that are "Closed, but not secured" and 2 that are "Secure".
How would I "Secure" them?

My AV detected the first file (eicar.com), but let the other three through.  With a manual scan they were detected though.

I have Mcafee Internet Security Suite, with Mcafee Firewall; SpamKiller; Privacy Service.

Make a knot in your cable (or install an other Firewall than McAfee...) !

I just went to check my Firewall settings and I got this message from Mcafee/Hackerwatch.

Unable to Probe
The IP address requesting this page is different from the IP address of your computer.  This indicates that your computer is behind a proxy or NAT.  These devices allow you to access the Internet by relaying traffic, typically from multiple computers, through a single IP address.

We are unable to directly probe your computer, you should take comfort from this.  You have that much more protection between your computer and the Internet.

So, I guess the above test wasn't accurate for me.
