Hello
I installed a personal firewall on my computer and now it alerts me that Oulook is trying to listen on some UDP port on startup.
Is this normal? The port number seems to be random, changing every time. Could this be a trojan? Should i be concerned?
Local MS support didnt help much.
Thanks

Do a anti virus and spyware scan if you are worried.

If you are using Outlook as an Exchange client, then yes, Outlook will be listening on at least one UDP port.
