I'm curious about the discrepancy between the scanner and the port monitor
outputs. First thing I would do, if you're scanning from another machine, is
double check your IP address. If you're scanning from your machine, replace
192.168.0.1 with 127.0.0.1 and see what that shows.

You're correct in saying that an open port requires a process behind it.
Maybe you read this article already, might give you some ideas.

Of course, sans.org will also have some good walkthroughs.
