Hello,

As of netstat's output, there's something using port 53/udp.

Using 'lsof -i udp' (if 'lsof' is already installed) should
give more informations about the program using this port.

If it's "named", use 'dig +trace @127.0.0.1 www.google.com' 
to see the responses (where the data are going/coming).

With regards,

Jean-Philippe.

ps: it's normal you don't see any listen on port 53/udp.
