I agree with using a router so you are not bothered every time a scanner probes your ports. It is unlikely that someone is trying to attack his pc in particular because it is probing a commonly scanned port , and even so the attacker can do nothing from the outside. Stealth is not necessary as a scanner does not differentiate between a closed port or one that is dropping packets; it is simply probing for a susceptible pc to attack.
