Port 135 is the port Microsoft's RPC service listens on and there are MANY exploits that use this port. You should definately close it ASAP.

That does look a little suspicious. Disable windows filesharing if you can.

i think i know how to do this....I right clicked on my network connection and un checked file and printer sharing
not sure why it was enabled but whatever... it should be disabled now.

Ideally you really should close the port with a firewall, in addition to disabling the functions that use it. Also, for good measure, go to grc.com from your server's browser and run a port scan to see which other ports are still open that can be closed.
