Common ways to check wether the program is uninstalled completely
If you often choose to uninstall the program manually, to make sure the program can be completely removed from your computer, you can follow these ways to check whether the program is uninstall thoroughly on the computer.
One – go to where the program install, check whether the install folder and some associated files are still there, if there are, manually remove them completely, if some files do not allow you to remove, you will need an application that can help you forcedly remove them on the computer.
Two – check the associated program and related icon and shortcuts are cleaned out on the computer. There are some programs in nowadays would install several applications on the computer but not only the one you need, so you should go to check wether there are some other related programs installed on your computer, and you should uninstall all of them from your computer.
Three – the last one will be the registry entry. Most the program will install or create several registry entries on the computer system, and the common uninstall way often neglect them during the removing process, so you usually need to find out these related registry entries and delete them manually from your computer system.

Remove Gfi Endpoint Security Agent
A search of GFI's knowledge base using the search term 'firewall ports' and the product limited to 'EndPoint Security' returned the information below (article). The first two entries apply to the agent installed on client computers while the last option applies to the actual server portion.
Agent Communication: TCP 1116
When the agent is installed, the GFI EndPointSecurity Agent Service communicates back to port 1116 on the GFI EndPointSecurity Console server. This can be changed in Configuration > Advanced Options > Communication.
Agent installation and updating: TCP 135, 139 & 445
When the GFI EndPointSecurity Console machine installs or updates agents, it communicates from a random port to port 139 & 445 on the target agent machine. These are the standard SMB /RPC ports enabled on the clients by Microsoft File and Folder Sharing.
SQL Server Communications: 1433
The GFI EndPointSecurity Console server connects to the Microsoft SQL Server service instance on the SQL Server machine. This is normally TCP 1433, but may be configured differently on the SQL Server (it can be a dynamically assigned port or statically defined).
