The [System] process (PID 4 on this Windows XP Pro Box) is making strange
outbound connections to unknown IP address spaces on one of our machines. It
tries to connect to port 139 and 445. Is there any way to figure out what is
causing the system process to do this? The connections do not seem to be
successful. The Packet trace shows the outbound SYS and then nothing. Any
help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
