Dan, I'd guess that they're checking to see if you have a gnutella
server
running.  I think that some of the root-kitted boxes are being used 
as 'hidden' file repositories.  After hearing some horror stories about
copyright police, I'd not be surprised if a lot of copyrighted material
is being placed on remote sites.
