USB drive opens and listens to port - ?
A co-worker in my tech support dept. has found that some (or all?) USB flash memory drives seem to be opening and listening to a port. The process is UStorSrv.exe (perhaps used in all USB flash memory drives?) and it appears to be sitting on port 32219.

Does anybody have any info on whether this is actively transmitting anything? Where it would be sending to? Anything that could have potential misuse?
