| I have more than 40 MSMSGS opened ports in my XP Firewall
| settings due to Windows Messenger on my home machine. Are
| they all really neccassary? Is there any way to prevent
| them from dynamically getting created? I have another
| machine at work with a static IP address that is
| configured exactly the same that only has 2 opened MSMSGS
| ports constantly. The number of opened MSMSGS ports on my
| home machine always vary. Can anyone tell me why one
| machine constantly has only 2 opened ports and one has
| more than 20 opened ports at a given time?
