Hello all,

I was recently plagued by a series of popups and permission dialogs when I
wasn't even surfing so I figure something installed a content puller/spyware
whatever on my system. In the process of tracking this crap down I noticed
that several ports, non-standard, on my system are open and listening. My
question is, is there a way I can write a utility that will tell me what
processes are listening on these ports? Can I somehow hook the open port
functionality to retrieve this information?

TIA for any feedback,

SysInternals kindly provide source code for their "netstatp", which does
just that.

There's also "fport" from http://www.foundstone.com/
