More details are definitely needed, but let me ask a very basic question...is
it safe to assume that you're running some sort of AV software?  You're not
infected with a Blaster varient, right?

Dear list,
i am seeing strange traffic ... first something connects to 139 on windows
workstation ... 2 packets causes the svchost to crash.
and then i start seeing traffic to port 4444 from the same ip.

what is this traffic i am seeing ? any new kind of malware trying to open of
port 4444 with the initial vector of infection on port 139 ?


the machine is fully patched and protected by firewall from outside world
with a sniffer logging all the data ie scr, dst ip and ports numbers ( this
is how i know the above info ) 

and nothing suspecipous is there on the machine also ... since the machine is
under heavy watch anything unsual would be caught immediatly....
