   Anyone know why Netscape opens the port 5180, 5190 is AOL instant   
   messenger, but on 2 of my pc's on the LAN netscape opens up port 5180,   
   on the 3rd it doesn't and they are all installed the same. It's a   
   local host loopback, and it's listening on 127.0.0.1. I've searched   
   the web, but no good answer, and I don't understand why it doesn't do   
   it on the one comp and does it on the others. The one that it doesn't   
   do it on ahs been installed for about 6 months and hasn't been   
   re-installed, the other comp has a clean install and it does it, cause   
   I never use it to browse the web, unless the LAN goes down and for   
   testing purposes. HELP! :) I have a firewall to block it, but still   
   would like to know what causes it to open port 5180, I hate   
   unnecessary ports, especially with all the spyware and trojans on the   
   internet these days, it's a shame that people have to be like that.
