I've been detecting strange packets on my network. I run tcpdump on local interface of my Gentoo machine (router, apache etc.) and it displays packets sent from 127.0.0.1 port 80 to random local addresses:
Code:

There are no such addresses on my network like the destinations of the packets, neither are there such networks like 192.168.245.0.
netstat -l gives me only one line with source port 80:
Code:
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

Any idea what could case this strange behavior? Is there some way to check which process binds to port 80? I thought packets cannot be routed from 127.0.0.1 to other networks. Am I wrong?
Thanks for any help
O.

I have just checked that despite what tcpdump shows ifconfig and iptraf show absolutely no activity on lo interface.
Could this be another virus sending packets with fake source IP's through the gateway?
