Not allowed to use restricted network port” (WebKitErrorDomain:103) ?? Help

I have a url that always gets this error message on safari "Not allowed to use restricted network port” (WebKitErrorDomain:103) "

But it doesn't do that from the PC side on my mac thru Parallels .

I just reset all the safari cache etc., thinking that might help. But still can't get to the url.

Can someone please explain what that is. and if I need to open some port maybe ?

Thanks in advance

Macbook Pro 2.ghz, Macbook,imac 17 1.83, emac, Mac OS X (10.4.9), 1.5 gig of ram .

Hi,

It appears Safari intentionally blocks 'unsafe' ports. For the time being there's nothing you can do other than use another browser such as Firefox which allows additional ports to be specified.
