Hi, all!

Just installed 5.1.2, and found that my help in CODE wouldn't work because the port it needed was 49214, instead of 49213 as it had been in 5.1.0. Obviously the firewall software which our corporate security honchos have installed on this machine had 49214 blocked.  I can't find any reference anywhere to it being changed, and in fact my help.cfg still says HTML_HOSTNAME=localhost:49213, so I'm a bit perplexed as to what's going on.  Does anyone know?

P.S. They decided to control this particular access by process instead, so they've opened it up for javaw.exe and closed both ports and it now works - but I'd still like to know what's up with it.
