Jack:

Is it sporadic? We were hit until 11:00, now all is quiet. We had one
machine that opened tcp ports 1-4000. On reboot it started to  open
ports again at a steady pace.

    Anyone else finding machines with all ports listening? current
    McAfee definitions don't pick anything up.

    Thanks,
