eg:

Code:
proto  local add         forieng add             state             
TCP    chris:1025       chris:1030              established
TCP    chris:1030       chris:1025              established
any ideas?

This really needs fixing, Ive been getting timed out so much lately its rediculous... including someone betting into me at the river when I have the nuts, someone re-raising me at flop when I have trip J's.. then wahay it times out
Im a network peep(CCNA), heres what i would do:

Windows netstat program is pretty bad, it dosent tell you which program is keeping those ports open. You shud try something better like http://www.diamondcs.com.au/openports/ (check the screenshot http://www.diamondcs.com.au/openport...ge=screenshots )

check that 1025 thats a common trojan port:

1025 tcp listen listener RFS remote_file_sharing
1025 tcp shoppro ShopPro accounting software
1025 tcp FraggleRock [trojan] Fraggle Rock
1025 tcp md5Backdoor [trojan] md5 Backdoor
1025 tcp NetSpy [trojan] NetSpy
1025 tcp RemoteStorm [trojan] Remote Storm
1025 udp RemoteStorm [trojan] Remote Storm


Also if you get those time outs often, keep a command prompt open, and when you think you are timing out again type in " tracert www.google.com" or "www.yourpokernetwork.com", and see if the problem is in your computer/network/ISP or is the poker network having problems.
