tcp

Running openSUSE 11.2 x86_64.

Here's what a nmap of my IP provides:

PORT STATE SERVICE
23/tcp open telnet
80/tcp open http
2800/tcp open unknown
8008/tcp open http

I would like to know How to view What service is causing Port 2800 to be opened?

A few search engine results led me to believe that it is supposedly a port opened by a Trojan called "Theef".

If it is indeed a Trojan, what can be done to weed it out? Is my desktop's security compromised?
