Win XP Home SP2, IE6, with latest updates for both.
When I run IE, my firewall says it keeps trying to
access outgoing localhost ports.
The port numbers start around 1900 and increase
into the 2000's and 3000's as I deny access.
When access is denied, IE seems to run very slowly
(takes a long time to connect to a web page).
When I use a firewall rule to allow access, IE runs normally.
What is IE doing with these ports ?
Why does it need them to run properly ?
What range of port numbers should I enable in the firewall ?
