why not also block it coming in? i'd leave out the -o ppp0 bit below.
then there's nothing that can come in and nothing to go out.

why REJECT? just DROP them!

also, port 136 is not a micro$oft port.

this is what stealthtest does:

fishbowl:~# tcpdump -i any -n host 216.41.20.17
tcpdump: listening on any
17:16:58.329572 216.41.20.17.137 > 217.162.222.147.137: 
>>> NBT UDP PACKET(137): QUERY; REQUEST; BROADCAST

(which i don't answer since this is a linux system), but the reply
should not pass through your rules. why don't you run the above
tcpdump line on the router/firewall and see what the stealthtests
cause. post that here...

just blocking dports 135,137-139 tcp and udp in FORWARD, INPUT and
OUTPUT should do the trick, actually... but you never know with this
micro$oft crap...
