Security Breach ?

Hello,

Upon checking my MRTG stats on a webserver I am running I found my 
traffic to be up considerably and the server
to be a bit slow.  After taking a look at my active connections to 
processes with netstat -nap I found these to be scary:

tcp        0      0 204.11.33.35:110            198.88.119.254:23781    
     TIME_WAIT   -

     ESTABLISHED 16035/-bash

     TIME_WAIT   -

     ESTABLISHED 16324/-bash
tcp        0      0 204.11.33.35:37325          194.134.7.195:6667

     TIME_WAIT   -

These established connections show -bash as the process running the 
port.  I have firewalled these IP's
off at my firewall, however, I can't find the root cause of this.  I 
have ran chkrootkit and found nothing.  However,
this is very scary.

Could anyone provide me some clues on how to proceed at this point with 
my investigation.
