According to http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers # 4458-4499 Unassigned port 4466 comes in the Unassigned range! It means it could be a port used by some malware. Maybe some machines which are already compromised and prolly port 4466 is used for the backdoor port used by intruder/your network's scanner to get back in.
