Window scan: This advanced scan is very similar to the ACK scan, except that it can sometimes detect open ports as well as filtered/nonfiltered due to an anomaly in the TCP window size reporting by some operating systems.

 Half open port scanner
Ports scans are not illegal in many places, in part because they don't actually compromise the system, in part because they can easily be spoofed, so it is hard to prove guilt, and in part because virtually any machine on the Internet can be induced to scan another machine.
An attacker will often sweep thousands (or millions) of machines rather than a single machine looking for any system that might be vulnerable.
Port scans are always automated through tools called Port Scanners.
