Strange traffic over ISDN on many TCP ports

Hi everybody, I hope somebody can help me because I'm getting crazy
with this problem.
My network is connected to internet through a Cisco ISDN router. I have
a PD Win2K server and many WinXP and Win2K clients. The server is
always on and now it makes no internet traffic, but as soon as I turn
on one client and it arrives at the login window the ISDN line is up
and it never goes down, until I shut down my client.

I used ethereal to sniff the network traffic. I'm not expert, but I
noticed a strange thing: there are repeating calls to 7-8 unidentified
ip addresses where the TCP port number is always different, in a range
between 1039 and 1181:
207.46.20.93: 1083
A 206.24.233.62: 1085
A 206.24.233.62: 1086
B 208.172.64.254: 1087
B 208.172.64.254: 1088
C 67.29.176.254: 1089
C 67.29.176.254: 1090
A 206.24.233.62: 1092
B 208.172.64.254: 1093
........
I marked with the same letter the same IP addresses.
The client is at the USER LOGIN window so there are only the basic
services started and there should be no activity.

Any idea?
Thanks for your help

Login and use TCPView from www.sysinternals.com (freeware) to see what
process is connecting.

Louis thanks for your suggest. I tried TCPView, I think it is very
useful.
This is the result:

I'll have to discover why there is an (active) FTP server in this PC,
very strange because the user completely ignores what an FTP is.
Ok for LUCOMS~1.EXE and RTVSCAN.EXE because there is Symantec AV
corporate edition.
I don't like very much all of these SVCHOST.EXE, I know it is a
Microsoft service, but...

Can you see something I didn't see?

I would definitely find out where FTPServer.exe came from. Unfortunately,
Google says it is a valid filename for some FTP programs and a valid
filename for some trojans. Also, you may want to uncheck the "Resolve
Addresses" entry on the options menu and look for the ip addresses from your
original post. Good luck.

Install an antivirus program on the infected computers. Or if not, do a
search after FTPServer.exe file on your computer and see where is located.
Copy this file on a computer with an AV installed, scan it and figure out
with what kind of virus are you dealing with; then get a removal tool for
this virus.
