Maybe this is some help?

If not, perhaps you could attempt to telnet or putty into the port, and see
if it returns an error message which might give some more info.
Another idea - try ethereal to capture the packet data and see what it
contains.
Also I believe nmap can attempt to establish what's listening on a certain
port.  It might give you more info than just system 4.

Hello

I need an advice. I have Windows 2003 server. It occasionally show
strange and suspicious network behavior. I used command "netstat -abov"
and Process explorer tool from Sysinternals to find process behind
connections. I found that it is "System 4" and got stuck. How I can
identify what is behind this "System 4"?

I thought it may be hidden process, but RootkitReveal from Systinternals
did not show anything.

I will be grateful for any ideas how to identify what is behind these
TCP connections from server to many computers!

Thank you in advance.

With best regards
Martynas
