[06:26:08] Checking for TCP port 2006 [ Warning ]
[06:26:08] Warning: Network TCP port 2006 is being used by /usr/sbin/apache2. Possible rootkit: CB Rootkit or w00tkit Rootkit SSH server
Use the 'lsof -i' or 'netstat -an' command to check this.

..but neither netstat or lsof show me any process which is using 2006 tcp port.
Any suggestion?

If you have rootkit, it will be invisible to system and every command can be already changed by hacker to not show his existance. First you must cold restart your system from safe boot image (LiveCD or image dowloaded from other PC) and check your suspected disk (with antivirus software and by binary comparison with not infected files).
