    If you don't want people to connect to your computer via ssh, you should disable the daemon service or you could add the following.

    Code:
    iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport ssh -j DROP

    If you don't want people on your computer to connect to other computers via ssh, you could add

    Code:
    iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport ssh -j DROP

    The default settings of iptables is to allow everything. It has to be configured to block what ever you want to block.

    From your iptables output, I can tell that you just copied and pasted it without actually understanding it. If you look at your policies, you will noticed that it is set to accept.
