TCP connections active - going through the roof!

I am running a webserver (Windows NT 4) and have been monitoring the TCP Connections Active (via performance monitor). I had expected these to start to fall or at least level out once the client machines (1468 in total) had logged off for the night - but instead this has been steadily increasing and is now at 4000 (should be less than 500).

I have run NETSTAT and found a link on Tek Tips which shows all the TCP/UDP ports (0 - 65535) but can't find any non-essential services running on my webserver.

Other than rebooting the server - is there any other way of forcing these connections to close. I had heard that there was a timeout setting in IIS Console? Is there anything else that could be causing this issue?

Grateful for any help you can give me.
