Sorry dude, you are very wrong.
SSL used for HTTPS is 443
139 is used for netbios and needs to be open to support our users in remote offices. Without it they would not be able to use mail, file shares or comunicate with the DC's(yes, we are still running NT 4)
When I said shut the VPN's down, I ment to shut them down temporarly. Whenever you have a zero hour virus that is tearing chit up, and it is comming from our parent company, the VPN goes down until we can assess the situation and make sure our users are safe. Thats why they are hit hard, and we are in the clear.
And 445 and 139 is always blocked at the gateway, or should be if your FW admin has half a brain
