When i close my torrent program i always check my netgear routers uPnP page to check to make sure the port is no longer mapped (sometimes it stays mapped and causes problems), and today i noticed for some reason on the uPnP screen it was listing port 52356 mapped to my LAN IP (and thats not my uTorrent port). I couldnt see any unusual programs running, and netstat didnt show any connections on that port, so should i be worried that it was being shown as having that port mapped to my LAN IP?
I have disabled uPnP and am using port forwarding (which doesnt seem to be working) untill i can figure out what program caused uPnP to open that port, but a google search has not realy helped me find out what program uses that port and so far my avast scan is clean.
Edit: I just got my router to email me a full log (log in the web browser screen is very limited in what it shows), and it seems that many different IPs are trying to connect on that port, as if it was a torrent program using that port, only problem is uTorrent is my only client, and that uses a single port, its not set to randomize port each startup. So i still have no clue as to the cause.
