When I used it it scanned a lot of things that I am not running such as 
netstat, after saying it would do my IP number (I checked and it was the 
same as IPLOCAL).  Does this mean I annoyed my ISP?  And 768 ports were 
closed so not scanned.  Would the others be scanned even if they do not 
exist?

I can post the result at my site some time (it would require rebooting out 
of DOS and using Opera first) if you are curious to see it.
