I am seeing similar traffic loads on my network at this hour, one of our
MS SQL servers seemed to be sending a large amount of traffic out to the
Internet. Still looking into it but too similar for me to avoid sending
an e-mail.

Same symptoms here. After disabling MS SQL, which required a reboot as
the process didn't want to shut down normally, the traffic stopped. I
found 3 boxes on our network that were generating massive amounts of
traffic, all of which run MS SQL.
MS SQL, or SQL Monitor?
I removed anything-SQL out of those sick microsoft boxes, and that put an end to the high traffic. As usual, servers had to be rebooted. Microsoft wins the Internet Disgrace Award of 2003.

would advise all and sundry to start filtering

Are those two separate programs? I don't know; I'm not a windows guy. I
just watched over the shoulders of a few other techs as they shut what
appeared to be everything-MSSQL down. I just found the blinkenlights
that were causing the problems, shut those lights off, and pointed the
windows guys to the offending boxes
