Subject: All tcp ports open?

I am not sure what is doing this, but I assume it is a 
software (or some kind of) firewall/hids, can anybody point 
me in the right direction?

I am pen-testing a Windows webserver, and a port scan reveals 
ALL tcp ports open. hping also confirms that a SA is returned 
for any S packets sent to any port I try. I can connect via 
netcat any of the ports, and send data, but nothing is 
returned. In order to verify services, I am required to 
connect and check for a banner or send appropriate protocol 
commands to elicit a response.

Has anyone seen this, or have any idea of what this is?

Thanks.
