Are they behind a firewall? Are they using private address space? If 
not could they have just been owned? Has someone installed an ftp 
server on them and are using them to distribute warez or more likely 
movies? Perhaps made them bittorrent servers/clients?

Check out Argus... it is a good flow monitoring tool... You can have it 
put together variable amount of userdata from all the packets and let 
you get a better idea at what is going on than from just looking at raw 
netflow data.
