Hello

Are processes running in ring 0 (kernel mode process) associated with lower numbered ports.

i was trying to understand port forwarding, and it states that running as port can be a security risk, so some people use port forwarding to redirect incoming traffic from a low numbered port to software listening on a higher port.

is the web browser a kernel mode process?
