I think the problem on running 'nmap localhost" is that it will ALSO list 
those services that are listening on the LOOPBACK intreface, thus you get a 
kind of "false positive".  I don't know if there's an option to avoid 
this..or perhaps running nmap with your external ip address? 

I always like to check with ShieldsUP...
