1080 is the Socks proxy port. Judging by the other ports, looks like someone has installed MS Proxy or some other proxy on your box. Have you tried connecting to those ports? Or setting up a browser to use those ports as a proxy service. Or even just checked your task list to see if anything unusual is running?
