AdForce hitting odd ports

Sorry, this is kind of off base. It's not an intrusion attempt (unless I really made a mistake!). Can someone explain to me, probably off list, why adforce attempts to make connections on high numbered ports? I'm getting a lot of drops on our firewall from adforce on high port numbers. 40277 40399 40495 42569 These are the frequently tried port numbers. I think that these dropped requests are due to users going to websites that have adforce banners on them: But I'm not clued in to why adforce then initiates a connection on the above mentioned ports. Any help/advice/direction would be appreciated. Thank you! -Rick
