Ethereal is a great product used to analyse incoming and outgoing network
traffic.

Download it here http://www.ethereal.com/

Do you have a Firewall installed on the network or on this machine. Also,
have you an up to date virus scanner installed.

If you don't have a virus scanner - you should get one. In the mean time you
can perform a free scan here http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
