This problem is not one I have every faced, but I agree it looks like
a policy problem. Is there a 'feature' to limit the number of
connection attempts per second?

What user is the service installed as, and what sort of rights does it
have? If it is not an admin type user, I wonder if there is now some
sort of socket behaviour in a policy for non administrators.

Unless the UPS was added and immediately you had problems, I do not
understand why that would be considered for such an error.
