What does the test do?
The test will load a webpage containing a Java-Applet. Many internet browsers support this way of embedding small programs into webpages.The applet will connect back to the server it was loaded from and will seemingly start an FTP connection.
By manipulating the content of that connection, you router might then allow our testserver to initiate arbitrary connections to your computer.
Important: Our server will only establish the connection just to immediately tear it down again - without transferring any data. However it could attack any service on your host. Do not run the test, unless you fully trust our server and the connection to it.

These advanced options are explained on this page.
