i was trying to host games on open battle.net, and i read that if you open port 4000 that you can, and i tried this and it worked perfectly, but then I read somewhere that this opens up your computer to hackers, and that people can just get right into your computer if you have this port open, so I reversed my port forwarding I had done. Is this true, and if so, is there any way I can host games and have my computer safe?

any1?

who has info?
