concurrent TCP connect attempts?

In my XP Home "Event Viewer" I notice under the System screen several
warnings stating:

"TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent
TCP connect attempts".

What does this mean? Where is this limit set and can it be modified?


Thanks.

Hi,

This may help explain it:

But I would hesitate on the suggested patch, as it may have a hidden agenda
of its own. Basically, the event your are seeing usually results from a user
running P2P software with multiple concurrent file sharing attempts in a
WinXP SP2 system.
