software that BBN has installed?

This is NOT where you start panicking and send mail to the firewalls list. In fact, this question has been asked maybe a dozen times during the past six months, and every time it’s been answered. Not that THAT keeps people from asking the same question again. If you are asking this question, you are most likely using a windows box. The ports you are seeing are (most likely) two listening ports that the RPC subsystem opens when it starts up. This is an example of where dynamicly assigned ports may be used by server processes. Applications using RPC will later on connect to port 135 (the netbios “portmapper”) to query where to find some RPC service, and get an answer back saying that that particular service may be contacted on port 1025.
