Port 1025 - network blackjack

The OS is Win XP Pro, SP-1.

A port scan of the computer reveals that Port 1025 is open.

netstat.exe -a shows that some service is listening on this port (TCP), but
there is no option to determine what's listening.

The IANA Port Numbers Assignment shows Port 1025's purpose as "network
blackjack".

I've read that some Trojan horses utilize this port and I should consider
closing it, which I can easily do with my firewall. Can anyone tell me the
purpose of this port, or how to find out the service that's listening?

Thanks for any help that you can give me!

Frank
