I am using the WARD-FTP Daemon.  It just connects back on the next available
port.  It usually seems to use ports in the 1000 range or the 5000 range.  It is
strange that you always get 5000.  At any rate, McAfee's latest scan package
finds nothing.  I think it is just the FTP service I am using is not very
sophisticated.
