NT Compromise

Hey all,

I am responding to several compromised NT boxes and am trying to find a
utility that will allow you to see what program is bound to a particular
port. I think I've seen one that shows what ports are bound to
command.com, but need something similar for other programs/trojans/etc.
Is there something available? Has anyone seen a compromised NT box with
port 6667 open that does not seem to be running an IRCD? Check out the
below snippit from netstat. I've tried connecting to the 6667 port with
MiRC.. Nothing at all! I need to find out what process/application
opened this port. On this note, can anyone recommend a good forensics
toolkit for Windows to be used on compromised machines?

C:\ netstat -an
-- snip --
  TCP    0.0.0.0:6666           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING
  TCP    0.0.0.0:6667           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING
  TCP    0.0.0.0:6668           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING
-- snap --



2nd Problem: Does anyone know what the REDIRECTOR in WindowsNT/2000 is?
I am seeing a compromised NT box full of such logs in the event/security
viewer. Logs have been pasted below. Notice all of the different
hostnames/machines its attempting to access. Add 70 something other
machines to the below list. What is it and is this a sign of a definate
compromise?
