I have no services added, but more and more of these msmsgs xxxxTCP and msmsgs xxxxUDP ports are opening.

Are you sure it isnt msmsgr xxxxTCP etc? This is what msn messenger does on my pc do you use this?

It could just be similar but i thought id say just in case it is just messenger opening the ports.

P.S it seems to open a good few ports on all computers ive seen.

to disable messenger :
start - run : type in services.msc
click OK, window opens.
scroll down to messenger
r/click, go to properties
startup type : hi-light DISABLED
click apply, make sure that the start button disables,
click OK, exit to desktop.

just in case it wasn't done, and Soda's link was missed.
