Suspicious connections on Show States. Any idea what this is?

I'm getting states that looks strange. I don't understand why the firewall is creating UDP connections to itself. Would you suspect this as an attack? ???

Below is a screen capture.

Do you have any packages installed?
Which version of pfSense are you using?

I am using ver 1.2.2. The packages installed are squid and ntop.

your question gave me the answer. i stopped squid and it went away. but i still don't understand why it's communicating with itself.
