Meaning of Console Log Entry? (and how to make it stop?)

Using MS products? If so, do a google search for Tcplistener.

Not using MS (except under Parallels, but this happens even when Parallels isn't running)...though it is possible that something carried over to this machine from the eMac when I upgraded, I guess...

Would there be anything that should be obvious in Activity Viewer (but isn't obvious to me)?

Did you do the google search, anyway? Since you're using Parallels, I suspect that you're running Windows.

When I searched the machine, it came up empty. Searching the web for information gave me a LOT of stuff that didn't makemuch sense to me. 🙂

Yes, when Parallels is running, I'm running XP Pro.

Then, you're running MS stuff. I can't help with the *didn't make much sense* response. I don't do windoze, so I can't help. However, most of the hits I got were MS-stuff related and I suggest posting to MS's forums for deciphering the nonsensical.

Well, no. Windows (i.e., MS stuff) is only running when Parallels is running, so there should be nothing like this going on when Parallels is not running.

Look at it this way: the only MS stuff that runs on this machine is +under Windows,+ not under OS X; when you install Windows under Parallels, it is not installing things anywhere else, and it is not installing things that will run on the Mac except under emulation. Thus, unless there is something that carried over from the old machine as a 'legacy item', there is no MS stuff normally running on this machine--nothing that should be doing what is going on.
