You are, I hope, aware of the Trojan Horse problem:

Do any of the "unusual" ports you mention correspond with those listed in 
the posting, if I may ask?

That's the Jeem trojan, I've heard of that alright.   However, I don't
know for sure what ports might be a good example, since I'm just an avid
user of the DNSBLs in question, not one of the folks writing the testing
tools ;)

There's a good chance that the reason unusual ports are showing up is,
indeed, because of Jeem-infected machines, rather than the traditional
AnalogX style of default-open proxy software.
