Ever since the last update, I've been having some really bad problems staying connected to the internet. Just on a hunch, I decides to log when I got disconnected, and found when I checked my firewall log that at those times, it blocked an access to Ports 1026 and 1027.
I did a search on google for these two ports, and found they are related to the (Windows?) Messenger along w/ port 135. I was wondering if I could close these ports down w/o any adverse effects to GW, or are these two necessary to play the game?
Im basically looking at my Firewall log, and its blocking 1-2 attempts every 3 minutes.
Ports 1026 & 1027, Necessary?

Sounds more like you picked up spyware / adware.

port80 is the default web port though :|
