Lanwench,
Thank you very much for your advice. It was in fact
Windows Messanger. I only had difficulties stopping it. As
soon as I was able to exit it, I do not have these
automatically opened ports anymore. The problem with
exiting Windows Messanger was that first of all, INstant
Message scanning should be disabled for MSN Messenger in
Norton Antivirus 2003, otherwise Messenger does not exit,
it says, that some applications are open which use its
service (while it is only Norton Antivirus scanner). The
answer to this problem of closing Windows Messanger I
found in the "Messenger" discussion group here, at this
Microsoft board.
Thanks a lot to all.
Yuri.
