remote desktop question...

I am using remote desktop connection through WINXP and I just installed a virus protection program...
What port(s) should I leave open to still have access to remote desktop connection...

You installed virus protection or a firewall? Remote Desktop uses port 3389 I believe. Did you know that WinXP has a firewall built in? They make it simple to enable the firewall but keep the Remote Desktop port open that way. If you are using another firewall, just leave open port 3389.
