I'll chime in here and add what I can.  I'd really love to see the
canonical list, if one already exists.  It might also be worth while
to note how to block these as well.  Some like AudioGalaxy are a little
more difficult to block until one figures out which CIDR blocks to
blackhole.


1214 - napster and the like

  1214/TCP is KaZaA/Morpheus

5000

  5500/TCP and 5501/TCP are HotLine

5555
6346 - Gnutella and clones
7777
8311

         This is/was Scour Exchange.  I believe that it's dead.

8875
8888 - AudioGalaxy?

         AudioGalaxy also port 20 or 21 (can't remember which), *much* to
         the consternation of some intrusion detection systems which attempt
         to analyze FTP traffic. :-(

6257 - WinMX TCP
6699 - WinMX UDP

  Cool, I was wondering what program was creating all of that 6257/TCP
  and 6699/UDP traffic.


  Another one that I've seen is some music exchange program, possibly
  Korean in origin, that generated huge amounts of 9001/UDP packets.
  You can identify this one by telneting to the machine that is generating
  the UDP traffic on 9002/TCP.  If you get something like this:

    MTP 1.0

  as a response, then you've found this one.  I was once told the name
  of the Korean program, but I've since forgotten it.
