[thelist] Apache on Win32

I've deleted all the entries in the host table except the one where
host=localhost and user=root.
How safe am I against someone with a port scanner? Does anyone know if there
is a way to block outside access to all my ports with ZoneAlarm? Or should I
invest in a LinkSys Router/Firewall?
Thanks for everyone's help,
Beau

Or, avoiding the REVOKE syntax, even simpler solutions would be:
to set all the host to localhost:
UPDATE mysql.user SET host='localhost';
or to simply remove the users not validated against localhost (REVOKE does
not remove the user):
DELETE FROM mysql.user WHERE host!='localhost' AND host!='127.0.0.1';
be careful with the last one; make sure you have your user or root user
explicitly validated against 'localhost' before running 'FLUSH PRIVILEGES';
