Sometime in June billings at negate.org assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| Try using 'lsof' to track it down.  Can you still see the port open with
| nmap?  If it's a TCP port, can you telnet?  
| 
| 
| 
| If your system is compromised, though, you're probably not going to be
| able to see it.  I suggest downloading 'chkrootkit' and running it.

i ran chkrootkit and it didn't find anything. i think alex is right. i was
running nmap from my home computer on a box at school. when i run it on
localhost on the school computer the 1434 port doesn't show up. also when i
run it from other computers at school it doesn't show up. this is a filter
placed on the schools routers due to the slammer worm.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
