And "my ip" is a 127 loopback IP address. Any address in the 127 range is merely looping back and pinging your ethernet interface. LOL.
Any open ports that you guys are scanning are open ports on your own workstation.
Man, this is funny.
Oops, I wasn't thinking ... I missed that 192 address being internal entirely! :oface
FWIW, I did not try the 127 address (because I recognized that one!) but I did ping the 192 address. Surprisingly enough, it responded to the ping from within our firewall, but I just tried it again from outside and it obviously timed out. Somewhere in our work network, a machine is responding to that ping ... hmmm!
