Default Port 26895 -- what is this?

I'm being hit by hundreds of connection attempts per minute by port
26895.

The only thing I can think of is my Win XP machine on the other side
of my firewall that's running Warez.

My firewall is running iptables and has two interface cards. I've
completely shut down the private NIC so Warez (and the entire Win PC
for that matter) cannot access the Internet.

Unfortunately, out of the box SuSE cheerfully accepts these connection
INPUTS and then immediately DROPs them.

I've seen no reference to port 26895. Anybody know what this is?
