Strange NMAP results

[Derrick Edwards]

    Hi,
I was trying to scan my localhost and I get the following results. I can scan 
other machines on my network and internet fine, I also have checked 
the /etc/hosts file and a valid entry is there for localhost. I dont have an 
host based firewall running on the host either. Anybody see this before.
