| reply to Sparrow Re: Netstat Prompt Results - What does this mean?
You may want to try some slightly better tools if you want a better output shown. "netstat -ano" is cumbersome as it doesn't even show the processes, only the PIDs. If you want another command line utility that is free try our own OpenPorts, it even includes other common displays like netstat and fport in it :-

If you want a vanilla GUI version for free you can try TCPView (»www.sysinternals.com). And finally there is Port Explorer, which has a suite of tools and features, but it isn't free(shareware version available for download) (»www.diamondcs.com.au/portexplorer/).
With any of those tools you will be able to see which processes are listening much more easily. Port Explorer will also show you hidden processes and give you the ability to block/spy/throttle/kill on certain sockets also if you need that functionality.
