How about capturing packets with tcpdump and running it through Wireshark and Snort for a quick check?

* Just a small nit but proper punctuation and well-formed phrasing does enhance readability. From your other threads I know your language skills are better than this. TIA.

hi

yes this is a virus, a friend of mine had had the same problem but i am not sure how he solved it. ( actually he told me he made a script for this)
You could try tcpdump as unSpawn suggested, on a few computers and put the relevant output here; perhaps some of the more skilled people here can help you out; meanwhile update all your windows clients and tell them to use firewalls (i'm not sure if it helps but its a good start)

adaylater: try using arpwatch :)

yes i would but it will take some time o talk to my friend...but try using arpwatch, with it you should see which pc is infected, and you can disconnect it for clean up ( i mean until you find a better solution)
