Do you by chance use Tiny Personal Firewall? I googled port 44334 and there were quite a few hits saying that its the 
firewall that uses that port.

Subject: What is this port? is it a trojan?

Hello all :)

 I have been taking a more detailed interest in my pc's security of late,
and security for computers in general, and I am learning at quite a fast
rate, although there is a great, great deal of information to learn out
there.

 Just recently I have taken to doing regular, netstat - probes on my machine
to see the different connections that arise and so forth.
 Today I found a rather mysterious port with the number, 44334 and I have
copied/paste the results of the netstat -an below for people to look at.
 Is the port in question, -44334- a Trojan? it strikes me as a rather
suspicious port and a rather large port number.
 Could anyone tell me how I can find out what's running behind the port in
question, and also what to do about it if it is a port.
 I have run my virus software, but it did not find any viruses or Trojans
installed on my machine, so I am at a loss as to what to do.
I am also very limited in my security knowledge, so I am basically stuck for
the necessary ideas or solutions on what to do in order to find out what's
behind this port.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated thanks.

Details of netstat below::
