Does anyone know why that would show as *:*? A port number that I'm trying to use to run a piece of software on keeps showing up as in use in the log files. If I change the port number it will work for awhile, but then evetually will show up as in use. The port number it says is in use will have the *:* next to it when I do the netstat -a. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
 
Use tcpview from www.sysinternals.com to determine the process using the
port in conflict.
