That's not a port, that's an IP address and it corresponds to your local 
computer (typically called localhost). Different applications can still 
use different ports (e.g., 110 for POP3, 25 for SMTP, etc.).

In some cases applications will allow you to use different ports. For 
example, I have POPFile using port 4110 instead of 110 for POP3 access.

Are you having any particular problem, or just worried about multiple 
apps using 127.0.0.1?
