Re: [TWC] what could these "localhost" connections be?

said by TheWiseGuy See Profile :

Now since in this case they are established versus listening, as was the case in the other example, you may be correct, all 4 sockets/ports may be simply for pollable events.
I show four lines for the Firefox sockets. Each line treats one of the endpoints as local, the other as remote. Two loopback connections have four endpoints.
I used 'netstat -ano' to get the ProcessID#. Windows Task Manager identified ProcessID# 5936 as Firefox.
