Don't forget to check out Microsoft's Anti Spyware.
www.microsoft.com/spyware

Sometimes it could be because you truely ran out of ports. Are you trying to
download too many things at one go using P2P transfers?

You could go at command prompt type "netstat -a". If you see a lot of ports
established, i really mean a lot. A computer can have ports ranging to as
high as 65535.

But then again, to get a machine to use up all those ports, you gotta be
downloading tons of stuff at once.
