I have Outpost Firewall and was just curious what it meant in "Network Activity" there is listings of all programs connecting to the net or ports... Firefox.exe is one of them, but there is another that just says "N/A" with no ".exe" extension and it's always trying to use UDP ports for inbound and outbound connections. I'll list example below.

2:19:35 PM n/a IN REFUSED TCP 206.248.126.222 4818 Packet to closed port
2:19:26 PM n/a IN REFUSED UDP 24.64.147.234 2842 Packet to closed port
2:19:26 PM n/a IN REFUSED UDP 24.64.147.234 2842 Packet to closed port

2:14:14 PM n/a IN REFUSED UDP localhost 4617 Block Transit Packets
2:13:53 PM n/a IN REFUSED UDP localhost 4612 Block Transit Packets
