Port 65535?

Is uTorrent 1.20 using port 65535 for anything? If not my computer seems to be attacked quite hard from trojans on that port. uTorrent shows ok on network and DHT:184 peers so everything seems normal from that side.

I have no Idea how torrent handels with ports but I assumed that if I have the default listening port on 32459 all incoming connections from other peers would try to only that port. So do I need to open other ports also as below to have more connections? I just assumed that 65535 was by some troijan as there are some active ones using that port, ofcourse it can just be someone using a custom port but I thought all inbound connections would have been on 32459. Because of all the connection tries on port 65535 Zonealarm started to eat quite a lot of resources so finaly I made a block from hardware side.

Azureus: 6881

BitComet: 12242

BitTornado: 10000-10004, 10000-10004

BitTorrent: 6881-6889

ABC: 6881-6999

Shareaza: 6346, 6346

Some of the peers you are connected to could be using port 65535 and ZoneAlarm might see that as a hacking-attempt. µTorrent itself isn't using that port AFAIK.
