Tomas,

1025 is dynamically assigned, so really any program can request use of it. I have seen nterm use 1026 rather frequently. 1036 is usually an outbound port.

You can see what all is listneing on your system by running netstat -l (unix) or netstat -a (windows) from a command prompt.

Subject: Why alerts on ports 1025-1029, 1036

I get constant alerts from Zonealarm and it is always blocking on ports 1025, 1026, 1027 or 1029.
Can someone tell me why?

Sometimes also alerts from blocking on port 1036. What's there?

TIA
Tomas
