port 62997 open


i just installed slack 10 fresh this weekend (ive had it on for a while but dropline took out a buncha libs), i booted up today and checked the listening ports. theres one i cant identify - port 62997. here netstat -lv:
Code:
tcp        0      0 *:x11                   *:*                     LISTEN      
tcp        0      0 *:62997                 *:*                     LISTEN      
tcp        0      0 *:ssh                   *:*                     LISTEN      
udp        0      0 *:bootpc                *:*
and here's ps -ax:
Code:

i tried connecting with telnet, it says it made a connection, but theres no service banner that comes up or anything. i noticed samba had a buncha weird ports open, i so i shut that down too. i checked /etc/rc.d for any weird executable services, but they all look normal. google doesnt show me anything about that port either.
anyone got any ideas ?
