Interesting. Had no trouble with links-0.9.0:

Then I hit the link at the top of the page and ended up with this:

That's garbage. Makes it look like I'm running an incredibly busy
server with an excellent firewall. I don't have most of those
apps on this box. In fact, I've never even _heard_ of most of
them. And I'm not running any network daemons/(super)servers. I
have an FTP server, but it's not up.

Whatever they scanned, it wasn't (just) me. Must have been simple.net.

I wouldn't use this site. It could get you in trouble. They could
have nmap configured to give _your_ IP as the origin of the
probe. Such capabilities are strongly-implied in the man page.
