Re: New Software Announcement - SIXTH SENSE
[ QUOTE ]
I'm sorry if this has been brought up previously.
I have been using Sixth Sense for about 2 hours and it has 31 open ports on my machine. Is there a reason for this. Nice program.

When you hit Refresh it sends an outgoing query on port 80 (http). Also, while it is table scoring it connects to your postgres database (once for each db you have configured). Not sure the port number on that.
I just looked at it running on my machine using the "Process Explorer" tool, and it shows it with one TCP connection to port 5432, which I assume is the PostgreSQL port. So that looks right.
I'm not sure why you see that many open ports. What tool are you using? Could you post a screenshot.
