FileNail.100

Has anyone ever heard of a trojan called "FileNail.100"? I happened across it in a network scan of my network, and it happens to be on my workstation. I ran a trojan scanner and it found the program had a certain port open. I verified it by using a port scanner, which indicated the port was open and listening. I have found various spyware programs on the station using Spybot SD, and Ad-Aware. Both programs discovered malware. Is it possible that one of these spy programs had this port open for some reason? If so, can I somehow close the port locally, as my firewall only allows for protocol specific blocking, as opposed to port blocking.

Thanks for any info.
