The suggestion being of course to block these ports on your router. I'd start with port 5050 and 5101
robmonster: that simply wont work.
if you block every single port other than 80, it will still get out! if you then block 80 as well, nothing will work! not even allowed web traffic!
you need to filter the packet at a different level re: my previous suggestions
