Sorry for my brevity and thank you for your answer. I meant ports as in IP ports. I tried to start a server-type program but it exits and tells me that port is already in use. This seems very odd to me because I should be the only one using it. I suspect its still running another copy of my server. How can I find out and if it is another instance of my server how can I kill it?
