Oh, and just because it's using port 21 doesn't necessarily mean
that it's doing FTP, that's just the recognised common use of the
port.  If you're infiltrated, it could be doing anything.  You,
most likely, need to be more concerned about what process is
using port 60088.
It may be a good idea to block both of those ports and see what, if
anything, breaks.  In fact, if you're not using the box as an ftp
server, the port should be blocked anyway.  (I sometimes ftp to my
desktop from my laptop, but I use ftp over ssh, which uses a
different port.)

After some more investigation I find that 195.154.162.172:21 starts up
after starting a web browser. Kind of sounds like I'm being tracked.
I've checked all of the settings. Can't see anything in the browser
that relates to the FTP port. I'll have a look at firewall settings. As
far as I know port 21 is blocked.

That sure sounds like a plugin in your broswer.
